Owen Young - Moon On The Rise Lyrics

Moon on the rise, rain on the way
If she were here she'd know what to say
And all the fine words I could just put away
If she were beside me now
Things might be better somehow
Things might be better somehow.
My thoughts are riding on a storm in the night
The sky so big, the stars so bright
My heart is scarred and my head just ain't right
If she could be here with me now
Things should be better somehow
Things should be better somehow.
A train overloaded, she kept me on the rails
A ship leaving harbour, she kept me under sail
Sometimes been running, sometimes been slow
Always been trying to find a way home
Searching faces and places I know
Trying to find a way home.
Life goes on yet it always comes 'round
The river's deep and it's ever profound
But pebbles make ripples that can reach higher ground
If I could just be with her now
Things would be better somehow
Things would be better somehow.
I dream of her come the end of the day
Glorious sunsets can break through the gray
She's in the distance, she's walking my way
As the colours all fade into sound
Things will be better somehow
I know that things will be better somehow.
