Jealous Moon Lyrics - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Saw her there in the fading light 

In full bloom on a summer night 

Nothing but the man in the moon 

Was standing in my way 

I was drunk on the warm sweet air 

Tangled up in her raven hair 

I should've known but I didn't care 

She'd be gone by the light of day 

Cause her eyes were shining brighter 

Than the light of the jealous moon 

And the stars fell all around her 

Well did I see you smilin' 

When the morning came too soon 

Did I see you smilin' 

Jealous moon, jealous moon

Now the sun dances across my room 

I can smell the wine and her soft perfume 

The only thing that lets me know 

That an angel wasn't here 

You know I had this crazy dream 

She flew away on stolen wings 

But all she took was a pair of jeans 

When see saw that the coast was clear 

And her eyes were shining brighter 

Than the light of the jealous moon 

And the stars fell all around her 

Well did I see you smilin' 

When the morning came too soon 

Did I see you smilin' 

Jealous moon, jealous moon

And her eyes were shining brighter 

Than the light of the jealous moon 

And the stars they fell all around her 

Well I thought I saw you smilin' 

When the morning came too soon 

Did I see you smilin' 

Jealous moon, jealous moon 

Jealous moon, jealous moon
