Half Moon

That morning sky gave me a look

So I left while you were sleeping

That's all it took

And I chalked a line south down the coast

Going where my thirst was open

For the things that I don't know

Going where I wasn't paying

For the hurt that I owe

One half moon sleeping by the creeks

And a woman put me under

Her barn roof for a week

I knew her voice before she spake

I saw a grave dug by a preacher

Just to see what it would make

So hold high have faith your reasons

(Or you'll never get on)

Don't you forget you come from nothing

(Or you'll never get on)

That wind is calling my name

I won't wait or I'll never get on

It's not hard to live like a ghost

I just haunt all that I've wanted

And leave what I don't

I dreamt a trail up to the sky

And my brothers built propellers

Just to see how far they'd fly

So hold high have faith your reasons

(Or you'll never get on)

Your flashing sparrows chasing with them

Don't you forget you come from nothing

(Or you'll never get on)

That wind is calling my name

I won't wait or I'll never get on

That wind is calling my name

I won't wait or I'll never get on

So hold high have faith your reasons

Hold high have faith your reasons

Hold high have faith your reasons

That wind is calling my name

I won't wait or I'll never get on
