Post Songs About the MOON Here!
"They Moved The Moon", by Warren Zevon

I was counting on you
To stand by me
To see me through
I was counting on you

They moved the moon
While I looked down
When I looked away
They changed the stars around

I'm so confused
Don't know what to do
Don't know which way to turn
I was counting on you

They moved the moon
While I looked down
When I looked away
They changed the stars around

Can't you see me?
Can't you hear me now?
Don't you want a love that's true?
Don't you know my heart belongs to you?

I was counting on you
To stand by me
To see me through
I was counting on you

They moved the moon
While I looked down
When I looked away
They changed the stars around

They moved the moon
I feel so strange
While I looked down
Everything I depended on
When I looked away
Has been rearranged
They changed the stars around

1. The Killing Moon
by Echo & the Bunnymen

Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you or cancel it
Though I know it must be the killing time
Unwillingly mine


Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him


In starlit nights I saw you
So cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world
Your sky all hung with jewels
The killing moon
Will come too soon


Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him


Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you or cancel it
Though I know it must be the killing time
Unwillingly mine


Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him


Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
You give yourself to him


La la la la la...


Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him


La la la la la...


Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him


Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him


La la la la la...

2. Underwater Moonlight, by the Soft Boys
He was white and she was white as only statues are
Fifty years they stood there looking stupid by a jar
One night in mid-august when the moonlight got too strong
They climbed off their pedastal and then they sang this song
Past the gun implacement and the bones as white as bleach
Through the rats and ivy till they came out on a beach
Out into the ocean till they disappeared from view
Honey, when it gets you there's just nothing you can do
Underwater moonlight sets the body free
Underwater moonlight baby you and me
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
He was pink and she was pink and onward they did row
Didn't see the giant squid though, it was fairly slow
When they hit the bottom they were well and truly dead
The statues took their place and then they rowed back home instead
Underwater moonlight, take your baby down
Underwater moonlight, watch you baby drown with love
And in the moonlight - Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
(there are a few quiet lines here I cannot make out)
Once again
I can take you down - Moonlight
Below the sea - Moonlight
Why don't you feed the fish? - Moonlight
I'll make you feed the fish - Moonlight
I'll make you feed the fish - Moonlight
I'll watch you feed the fish - Moonlight
I'll watch you feed the fish - Moonlight
Underwater moonlight sets the body free
Underwater moonlight baby, you and me
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight

4. Fly me to the moon
Fly me to the moon
Let me sing among those stars
Let me see what spring is like
On jupiter and mars

In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby kiss me

Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore

In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

5. Moon River.
Moon river, wider than a mile
I’m crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you’re goin’, i’m goin’ your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There’s such a lot of world to see
We’re after the same rainbow’s end, waitin’ ’round the bend
My huckleberry friend, moon river, and me

(moon river, wider than a mile)
(i’m crossin’ you in style some day)
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you’re goin’, i’m goin’ your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There’s such a lot of world to see
We’re after that same rainbow’s end, waitin’ ’round the bend
My huckleberry friend, moon river, and me

6. Nat King Cole "Shine on Harvest Moon"
Edited on Wed Oct-07-09 05:21 PM by merh
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfa3qTZinPQ

First verse

The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see,
For the moon refused to shine.
Couple sitting underneath a willow tree,
For love they did pine.
Little maid was kinda 'fraid of darkness
So she said, "I guess I'll go."
Boy began to sigh, looked up at the sky,
And told the moon his little tale of woe

Chorus

Oh, Shine on, shine on, harvest moon
Up in the sky;
I ain't had no lovin'
Since January, April, June or July.
Snow time ain't no time to stay
Outdoors and spoon;
So shine on, shine on, harvest moon,
For me and my gal.


Laurel & Hardy "Shine On Harvest Moon" (1939)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72qZZapTHFo

8. Pink Moon--Nick Drake
Saw it written and I saw it say
Pink moon is on its way
And none of you stand so tall
Pink moon gonna get ye all
And it’s a pink moon

I saw it written and I saw it say
Pink moon is on its way
And none of you stand so tall
Pink moon gonna get ye all
And it’s a pink moon
Yes, a pink moon

9. When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie That's amore
Thats Amore Dean Martin
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aS6-b7CONDI

In Napoli where love is king
When boy meets girl here's what they say)

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie
That's amore
When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine
That's amore
Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing "Vita Bella"
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella

When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fagiole
That's amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet
You're in love
When you walk in a dream but you know you're not
Dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli
That's amore

When the moon hits you eye like a big pizza pie
That's amore
(That's amore)
When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine
That's amore
(That's amore)
Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing "Vita bella"
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella
(Lucky fella)


When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fagiole
That's amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet
You're in love
When you walk in a dream but you know you're not
Dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli
That's amore
(Amore)
That's amore

10. I can't beleive no one's posted
Moondance!

Well, its a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
neath the cover of october skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And Im trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the nights magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush

Chorus:
Can I just have one a more moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love

Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I cant wait til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that youre never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you cant hide

Chorus

Repeat 1st verse

One more moondance with you in the moonlight
On a magic night
La, la, la, la in the moonlight
On a magic night
Cant I just have one more dance with you my love

14. Bad Moon Rising -- Creedence
I see the bad moon arising.
I see trouble on the way.
I see earthquakes and lightnin'.
I see bad times today.


Dont go around tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise.

I hear hurricanes ablowing.
I know the end is coming soon.
I fear rivers over flowing.
I hear the voice of rage and ruin.

Dont go around tonight,
Well, its bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise.
All right!

Hope you got your things together.
Hope you are quite prepared to die.
Looks like were in for nasty weather.
One eye is taken for an eye.

15. Radiohead - Sail to the Moon
Written for Thom Yorke's son.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4NB2Uk4-Xo

I sucked the moon
I spoke too soon
And how much did it cost?
I was dropped from moonbeams
And sailed on shooting stars

Maybe you'll be president
But know right from wrong
Or in the flood you'll build an Ark
And sail us to the moon

16. Harvest Moon -- Neil Young
Come a little bit closer
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleepin'
We could dream this night away.

But there's a full moon risin'
Let's go dancin' in the light
We know where the music's playin'
Let's go out and feel the night.

Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon.

When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart.

But now it's gettin' late
And the moon is climbin' high
I want to celebrate
See it shinin' in your eye.

Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon.

51. Jimmy Webb is one of my favourite songwriters ...
... and Linda Ronstadt always does a fantastic job on his stuff.

I'm especially fond of her version of "If You're Still Within the Sound of My Voice".

46. Moondance by Van Morrison.....my all time fave.
Well, its a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
neath the cover of october skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And Im trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the nights magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush

Can I just have one a more moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love

Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I cant wait til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that youre never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you cant hide

Can I just have one a more moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love

Well, its a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
neath the cover of october skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And Im trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the nights magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush

One more moondance with you in the moonlight
On a magic night
La, la, la, la in the moonlight
On a magic night
Cant I just have one more dance with you my love

50. we like the moon.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9MZNEXrElw

We like the moon
coz it is close to us
we like the moooon!
but not as much as a spoon
'cause that's more use for eating soup
and a fork isn't very useful for that
unless it has got many vegetables
and then you might be better off with a
chop-stick
unlike the moon
it is up in the sky
it's up there very high
but not as high
as maybe
digibles or zeppelins
or lightbulbs
and maybe clouds
and puffins also I think maybe
they go quite high too
maybe not as high as the moon
coz the moon is very high
we like the moon
the moon is very useful everyone
everybody like the moon
because it light up the sky at night
and it lovely
and it makes the tide go and we like it
but not as much as cheese
we really like cheese
we like zeppelins
we really like them
and we like kelp and we like moose
and we like deer and we like marmots
and we like all the fluffy animals
we really like the moon

52. Blue Moon


Blue Moon - The Marcels (1961)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-avJPsuArgs

BLUE MOON
The Marcels
- words by Lorenz Hart, music by Richard Rodgers

Blue Moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

Blue Moon, you knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for

And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper, "Please adore me"
And when I looked, the moon had turned to gold

Blue Moon, now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

54. Half Moon - Janis Joplin
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFCpaDEM3Mc



Half moon, night time sky,
Seven stars, Heaven's eyes.
Seven songs on seven seas
Just to bring all your sweet love home to me.
Hey, fill me like the mountains, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Fill me like the sea, Lord,
Not coming past, still at last
Your love brings life to me,
Your love brings life to me,
Hey!
Rings of cloud, arms aflame,
Sunrise up to call your name,
Sunrise up and it burn the ground
Just to shine above the first true love I found.
Hey! Fill me like the mountains, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Fill me like the sea, Lord,
Not coming past, still at last
Your love brings life to me,
Your love brings life to me,
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah!
Half moon, night time sky,
Seven stars, Heaven's eyes,
Seven songs on seven seas
Just to bring all your sweet love home to me.
Hey! Fill me like the mountains, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Fill me like the sea, Lord,
Not coming past, still at last
Lord! Fill me like the mountains, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Fill me like the sea, Lord,
Not coming past, still at last
Lord! fill me like the mountains, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Fill me like the sea, Lord,
Not coming past, still at last
Your love brings life to me,
Your love brings life to me,
Your love, la, la, la, la wah, whoa love, love —
Your love brings life to me, yeah.
All right. We'll sue you! Oh, it's Sunday, right ? It's Monday now, right ? No ? Well, well, keep on rockin'. It's five minutes past Sunday ? Hey, you're still here, man ? It's Monday, it's legal, right. This is a very strange place you have. And if you ever need a drink that should be on Sunday, man, that's the worst, ha ha! The worst day in the week and they close the bars ? I can't understand it!

70. Violent Femmes Fool In The Full Moon
Violent Femmes
3

I've been following women all afternoon
Don't turn around to soon
I've been following you all afternoon
Following you
A fool in the full moon
Something's got a hold on me
When I get a hold on you
Following women after dark
Nobody knows what's in my heart
< Violent Femmes Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com >
Let your loving be
I'm a lechery
I do not spread leprosy
I will not touch
But let me see
My building's burning down and I cannot breathe
Following you who won't believe
Perfect peace I cannot perceive
When I'm following you
I'm a fool in the full moon

72. "Yellow Moon" - The Neville Brothers
Yellow moon, yellow moon,
why you keep peeping in my window?
Do you know something I don't know?
Did you see my baby
walking down the railroad tracks?
You can tell me if the girls
ever coming back.

Is she hid out with another
or is she trying to get back home?
Is she wrapped up in some other's arms?
Or is the girl somewhere all alone?
Can you see if she is missing me,
or is she having a real good time?
Has she forgotten all about,
or is the girl still mine all mine?

With your eye so big a shiny
You can see the whole damn land
Yellow moon can you tell me
If the girl's with another man?

Oh yellow moon,
have you seen that Creole woman
You can tell me,
Now ain't you a friend of mine.

74. Moonlight Drive--the Doors.....
BTW, thanks for the Zevon..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9Q6gw478bw&feature=related

Let's swim to the moon, ah ha
Let's climb through the tide
Penetrate the evenin' that the
City sleeps to hide
Let's swim out tonight, love
It's our turn to try
Parked beside the ocean
On our moonlight drive

Let's swim to the moon, ah ha
Let's climb through the tide
Penetrate the evenin' that the
City sleeps to hide

Let's swim out tonight, love
It's our turn to try
Parked beside the ocean
On our moonlight drive

Let's swim to the moon
Let's climb through the tide
You reach your hand to hold me
But i can't be your guide

Easy, i to love you
As i watch you glide
Falling through wet forests
On our moonlight drive
Moonlight drive
Moonlight drive

Come on, baby, gonna take a little ride
Goin' down by the ocean side
Get real close
Get real tight
Baby gonna drown tonight
Goin' down, down, down, down
Goin' down
Goin' down, way down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, baby low
Children of the caves will let the
Secret fires glow

When the still sea conspires an armor
And her sullen and aborted
Currents breed tiny monsters,
True sailing is dead.


Awkward instant
And the first animal is jettisoned,
Legs furiously pumping
Their stiff green gallop,
And head bob up
Poise
Delicate
Pause
Consent
In mute nostril agony
Carefully refined
And sealed over.

Easy, to love you
As i watch you glide
Yeah, we're falling through wet forests
On our moonlight drive
Moonlight drive
Moonlight drive
Moonlight drive

75. There's A Moon In The Sky (Called The Moon)...B-52's
There's a moon in the sky
It's called the moon
And everybody is there, including,
Saturn, mercury
Saturn, venus
Saturn, mars
Saturn, jupiter
The van allen belt

Roll-roll-roll-roll-rollin' in andromeda
Won-ton-ton-ton rama-in-andromeda

There's too many rings---this is the space age
There's too many things---this is the space age
Just ain't no atmosphere tonight

If you're lucky you get to ride in a gold meteorite
If you're not, you get a mouth, a mouthful of red kryptonite
You better move over
Here comes a super-nova
Kryptonite- - -
Destination moon

If you're in outer space
Don't feel out of place
'cause there are thousands of others like you
Others like you
Others like you

Well there's a moon, it's in the sky
It's called the moon
And everybody is there 'cluding
'ranus
Neptune
'ranus
Pluto
Destination moon

Many gamma rays around it
Van allen belt surrounds it
This is the space age
Please don't worry
This is the space age
Just don't worry
This is the space age
Others like you
Ahhh ahhh..........

78. "RC Cola and a Moon Pie" - NRBQ
Edited on Thu Oct-08-09 01:44 AM by Zomby Woof
I don’t want no cornbread
And I can do without peas and rice
And I don’t want no carrot
Or no real hot pizza slice
Everything’s gonna be all right
With a RC Cola and a Moon Pie

I don’t want no chili
And I can do without beans and spice
And I don’t want no spare ribs
And no pig’s meat in disguise
But everything’s gonna be all right
With a RC Cola and a Moon Pie
It’s all right
Don’t you know it’s all right
’S all right

Sometimes I eat grilled cheese
Sometimes I eat fries
Sometimes I drink water
But then I have to think twice
Yeah

I don’t want no taters
And no gravy on the top
And I don’t want no salad
Or none of that other slop
But if there’s the one thing I want in my life
And you know it
It’s a RC Cola and a Moon Pie
It’s all right
Don’t you know it’s all right
’S all right

Yeah, it’s all right
Don’t you know it’s all right
’S all right
With a RC Cola and a Moon Pie

83. Can't Fight the Moonlight
(LeAnn Rimes)

Under a lovers' sky
gonna be with you
and no one's gonna be around
if you think that you won't fall
well just wait until
til the sun goes down

underneath the starlight - starlight
there's a magical feeling - so right
it'll steal your heart tonight

you can try to resist
try to hide from my kiss
but you know
but you know that you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark
you'll surrender your heart
but you know
but you know that you can't fight the moonlight
no, you can't fight it
it's gonna get to your heart

there's no escape from love
was a gentle breeze
weaves it's spell upon your heart
no matter what you think
it won't be too long
til your in my arms
underneath the starlight - starlight
we'll be lost in the rhythm - so right
feel it steal your heart tonight

you can try to resist
try to hide from my kiss
but you know
but you know that you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark
you'll surrender your heart
but you know
but you know that you can't fight the moonlight
no you can't fight it
no matter what you do
the night is gonna get to you

don't try then
you're never win

part of me the starlight - starlight
there's a magic feeling - so right
it will steal your heart tonight

you can try to resist
try to hide from my kiss
but you know
but you know that you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark
you'll surrender your heart
but you know
but you know that you can't fight the moonlight
no, you can't fight it

you can try to resist
try to hide from my kiss
but you know
don't you know that you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark
you'll surrender your heart
but you know
but you know that you can't fight the moonlight
no, you can't fight it
it's gonna get to your heart

84. I'd rather not. NASA is going to bomb the moon, so there is no use singing about it.
Face it, we should all adapt to a moon-less society, not waste our time singing about something that will soon be blown to pieces.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0ffdwBUL78

Somewhere theres music
How faint the tune
Somewhere theres heaven
How high the moon
There is no moon above
When love is far away too
Till it comes true
That you love me as I love you

Somewhere theres music
How near, how far
Somewhere theres heaven
Its where you are
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon

Somewhere theres music
How faint the tune
Somewhere theres heaven
How high the moon
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon

94. Howlin' at the Moon ~ Hank Williams
I know there's never been a man in the awful shape I'm in
I can't even spell my name, my head's in such a spin
Today I tried to eat a steak with a big old table spoon
You got me chasin' rabbits, walkin' on my hands
...and howlin' at the moon.

Well, I took one look at you and it almost drove me mad
And then I even went and lost what little sense I had
Now I can't tell the day from night, I'm crazy as a loon
You got me chasin rabbits, pullin' out my hair and howlin' at the moon.

Some friends of mine asked me to go out on a huntin' spree
cause there ain't a hound dog in this state that can hold a light to me
I eat three bones for dinner today, then tried to tree a coon
You got me chasin' rabbits, scratchin' fleas and howlin' at the moon.

I rode my horse to town to day and a gas pump we did pass
I pulled im up and I hollered whoa!, said fill im up with gas
The man picked up a monkey wrench and wham!, he changed my tune
You got me chasin' rabbits, spittin' out teeth and howlin' at the moon.

I never thought in this old world a fool could fall so hard
But honey baby, when I fell the whole world must have jarred
I think I'd quit my doggish ways if you'd take me for your groom
You got me chasin' rabbits, pickin' out rings and howlin' at the moon

Edited on Thu Oct-08-09 11:13 AM by Rambis
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9LHSucABlQ

Standing on the moon
I got no cobweb on my shoe
Standing on the moon
I'm feeling so alone and blue
I see the Gulf of Mexico
As tiny as a tear
The coast of California
Must be somewhere over here - over here

Standing on the moon
I see the battle rage below
Standing on the moon
I see the soldiers come and go
There's a metal flag beside me
Someone planted long ago
Old Glory standing stiffly
Crimson, white and indigo - indigo

I see all of Southeast Asia
I can see El Salvador
I hear the cries of children
And the other songs of war
It's like a mighty melody
That rings down from the sky
Standing here upon the moon
I watch it all roll by - all roll by

Standing on the moon
With nothing else to do
A lovely view of heaven
But I'd rather be with you

Standing on the moon
I see a shadow on the sun
Standing on the moon
The stars go fading one by one
I hear a cry of victory
And another of defeat
a scrap of age-old lullaby
Down some forgotten street

Standing on the moon
Where talk is cheap and vision true
Standing on the moon
But I would rather be with you
Somewhere in San Francisco
On a back porch in July
Just looking up to heaven
At this crescent in the sky

Standing on the moon
With nothing left to do
A lovely view of heaven

99. I'll Be Seeing You - Bing Crosby
I'll find you in the mornin' sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you

101. Arthur's Theme ~ Cristopher Cross
Once in your life you'll find her
Someone who turns your heart around
And next things you do
You're closin' down the town

Wake up and she's still with you
Even though you left her way across town
You're wonderin' to yourself
Hey what I've found

When you get caught between the moon and Nw York City
I know it's crazy but it's true
If you get caught between the moon and New York City
The best that you can do
The best that you can do is fall in love

Arthur he does what he pleases
And all of his life his master's toys
And deep in his heart
He's just he's just a boy

Living his life one day at a time
He's showing himself a really good time
He's laughin' about the way
They want him to be

Whejn you get caught between the moon and New York City
I know it's crazy but it's true
If you get caught between the moomn and New York City
The best thing you can do
The best thing you can do is fall in love

102. Elvis Moonlight Swim
Let's go on a moonlight swim
Far away from the crowd
All alone upon the beach
Our lips and our arms
Close within each others reach
Will be on a moonlight swim
(Yes, will be on a moonlight swim)

Let's go on a moonlight swim
To the raft we can race
After just a little while
I'll sit and pretend
That you're on a desert isle
With me on a moonlight swim
(On a moonlight swim)

Though the air is cold
With kisses oh, so sweet
I'll keep you warm
So very warm from your head to your feet

Let's go on a moonlight swim
We're in love and above
There's a crazy gold balloon
That sits winking down
And inviting us to
Come on in on a moonlight swim
(Come on in)

Though the air is cold
With kisses oh, so sweet
I'll keep you warm
So very warm from your head to your feet

Let's go on a moonlight swim
We're in love and above
There's a crazy gold balloon
That sits winking down
And inviting us to
Come on in on a moonlight swim
(Come on in)

On a moonlight swim
On a moonlight swim
(On a moonlight swim)

105. Waterboys - The Whole of the Moon
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsNTmjlf1vI

I pictured a rainbow
You held in your hands
I had flashes
But you saw then plan
I wondered out in the world for years
While you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!

You were there at the turnstiles
With the wind at your heels
You stretched for the stars
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon!

I was grounded
While you filled the skies
I was dumbfounded by truths
You cut through lies
I saw the rain-dirty valley
You saw brigadoon
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon!

I spoke about wings
You just flew
I wondered, I guessed, and I tried
You just knew
I sighed
But you swooned
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!

With a torch in your pocket
And the wind at your heels
You climbed on the ladder
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!

Unicorns and cannonballs,
Palaces and piers,
Trumpets, towers, and tenemets,
Wide oceans full of tears,
Flag, rags, ferry boats,
Scimitars and scarves,
Every precious dream and vision
Underneath the stars

You climbed on the ladder
With the wind in your sails
You came like a comet
Blazing your trail
Too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon!

107. Whalers on the moon!
We're whalers on the moon,
We carry a harpoon.
But there ain't no whales
So we tell tall tales
And sing our whaling tune.



-Futurama

108. The first song I ever learned was about the moon...
My mother sang it to me when I was a baby. It came to mind this summer when I was standing outside, with my dog, gazing up at the night sky...

I see the moon, the moon sees me
Down through the leaves of the old oak tree.

Please let the light that shines on me
Shine on the one I love.

Over the mountains, over the sea
That's where my heart is longing to be.

Please let the light that shines on me
Shine on the one I love...

110. The Black Ghosts - Full Moon (Appleblim & Komonazmuk Remix)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OU8YVikqkYg


When the thorn bush turns white thats when I'll come home,
I am going out to see what i can sow,
And i don't know where I'll go,
But i don't know what I'll see,
But I'll try not to bring it back home with me.

Like the morning sun your eyes will follow me,
As you watch me wander, curse the power that be,
'Cos all i want is here and now,
But its already been and gone,
Our attentions always last that bit too long.

Ooh ooh,

Far far away, no voices sounding, no one around me, and you're still there.

Far far away,no choices passing, no time confounding, and you're still there.

In the Full moon's light i listen to the stream,
And in between the sounds i still hear you calling me,
But i don't know where i am,
And i don't trust who I've been,
And If i come home how will i ever leave?
Ooh, ooh

115. That's a good one
Written by Rodney Crowell, who was Johnny Cash's son-in-law at the time - he was married to Roseanne.
