Walking On The Moon Lyrics - The Long Way Around - Tom Russell

The lights of the town were just shutting down 

The sun was fresh on the rise 

I met momma at the door, she'd been walking the floor 

She said boy, you've got stars in your eyes 

And momma I was walking on the moon last night 

And two loving arms held me tight 

As the stars danced around so bright 

I was walking on the moon last night 

Now momma she did weep, boy you've been walking in your sleep 

You can't keep your feet on the ground 

It's not always what it seems, young love may be a dream 

And some angels fly high just to fall down 

But momma I was walking on the moon last night 

And two loving arms held me tight 

As the stars danced around so bright 

I was walking on the moon last night 

Now the lights of the town are glowing yellow brown 

The moon is beginning to rise 

And I left momma at the door, I said don't worry any more 

I've seen daddy put those same stars in your eyes 

And momma I'll be walking on the moon tonight 

And two loving arms will hold me tight 

As the stars dance around so bright 

I'll be walking on the moon tonight 

And I'll be walking on the moon tonight 

And two loving arms will hold me tight 

As the stars dance around so bright 

I'll be walking on the moon tonight
