THE MOON & ST. CHRISTOPHER

When I was young I spoke like a child
And I saw with child's eyes
And an open door was to a girl
Like the stars are to the skies
It's funny how the world lives up to
All your expectations
With adventures for the stout of heart
And the lure of open spaces

There's two lanes running down this road
And whichever side you are on
Accounts for Where you want to go
And what you are running from
Back when darkness overtook me
On a blind man's curve

I relied upon the moon
I relied upon the moon
I relied upon the moon & St. Christopher

Now I've paid my dues 'cause I have owed them
But I've paid a price sometimes
For being such a stubborn woman
In such stubborn times
I have run from the arms of lovers
I have run from the eyes of friends
I have run from the hands of kindness
I have run just because I can

Now I've grown and I speak like a woman
And I see with a woman's eyes
And an open door is to me now
Like the saddest of goobyes
Well it's too late for turning back
And I pray for the heart and the nerve

I relied upon the moon
I relied upon the moon
I relied upon the moon & St. Christopher
To be my guide
