Lyrics to Moondog



Moondog, I love you, love you so strong

And, moondog, I trust you, it's been long



I trust you when it's corporate bound

In facelessness I know your sound

Sweet water run where there was dust

I need to lift the weight I must



Better to feel that weight fall down

Better to feel that weight fall down



Two ways of looking just as easy to be kind

Two ways of looking just as easy to be kind



And, moondog, I lay my face down the night

My sleep not come, I hear your cries

In the omnipresence of the laughing gun

You reach me, moondog, you're the one



Better to feel that weight fall down

Better to feel that weight fall down

Better to feel that weight fall down

Better to feel that weight fall down



Two ways of looking just as easy to be kind

Two ways of looking just as easy to be kind



Moondog, please send me a friend

A friend, moondog, please send



Looking for a place in the world

I used to have a place in the world

Better the heart in the whistling wind

Better the part deep from within

I feel you in these moon days

Messages in moon rays



Better to feel that weight fall down

Better to feel that weight fall down



Two ways of looking just as easy to be kind

Two ways of looking just as easy to be kind

Two ways of looking just as easy to be kind

Two ways of looking just as easy to be kind



Hey, moondog, yeah

Oh Moondog, oh moondog

Moondog, yeah

Oh Moondog, yeah
