BELLE & SEBASTIAN LYRICS - Waiting For The Moon To Rise

"Waiting For The Moon To Rise"



All the way back home

I'm telling you I caught the sun

Creeping up behind my shoulder

And another day's begun

I was following a trail

I'd never been along before

Chasing darkened skies above me

Looking like the spring

Like the winter

And the morning

If there's a place I want to go

Then I'll be there with you

'Cos in my dreams the things

I'm wishing for

Keep coming true

Now a new day comes

Clears the darkness out of sight

And the shadows that were sleeping

Come and dance beneath the light

And I'm trying hard to hide

Keeping the sun out of my eyes

Close them tight

And now I'm waiting for the moon to rise



Don't try to say to me

That this was never meant to be

'Cos the days are long where I come from

The next few days I'm free

There's a train I want to catch

But it won't leave here for a while

Till darkness fills the eastern sky

And streetlights stretch for miles

Through the spring

And the winter and the morning
