THESEUS & THE MOON

Sweet yellow moon in the midsummer sky
There’s a place just for you in my pocket
Shake your cloudy blankets on down to your feet
And come tiptoe down the ladder

I’m lost in this town of dead-end streets
You’re on the other side of the tangle
I’ve climbed all the way to this old rooftop
Just lookin’ for a positive angle

I’ve been traveling so low, looking down at my toes
Losing sight of this beautiful sky
Spread your light all around, let me see where I’m bound
And guide me to an easy way out

Sweet yellow moon, oh so many times
I’ve been my major oppressor
Half-man, half-bull, I laughed at myself
from a broken rearview mirror

I’ve been traveling so low, looking down at my toes
Losing sight of this beautiful sky
Spread your light all around, let me see where I’m bound
And guide me to an easy way out

When you tie your luck to a woolen thread
Well, you know it could lead you to nowhere
But now a sweet yellow moon’s hanging over my head
And I feel this time it was worth it

Sweet, yellow moon in the midsummer sky
There’s a place for you in my pocket
Shake off your blanket of clouds
And tiptoe down the ladder

I am lost in this city of dead ends
You are at the other end of the ball of yarn
I climbed to the top of this old roof
Looking for a good perspective

I have traveled so low, staring at my toes
Losing sight of this beautiful sky
Spread your light everywhere, show me where I’m headed
And lead me to an easy way out

Sweet, yellow moon, so many times
I have been my own worst tormentor
Half man, half bull, I laughed in my own face
from a broken rearview mirror

I have traveled so low, staring at my toes
Losing sight of this beautiful sky
Spread your light everywhere, show me where I’m headed
And lead me to an easy way out

When you tie your luck to a strand of wool,
you know that thread might not take you anywhere
But now a sweet, yellow moon dangles above my head
and I feel that for once it was worth it
