the WAning mOOn

The morning dew wets the parched lawn

It's been a year without a single drop

And though we wait, we will always wail

Forever now, we will always move

Mother due for the upteenth time

She holds it in with a torrid grin

The baby kicks folds his arms too quick

He never knew it was the folly that

Awaits

When the moon wanes

Awaits

When the moon wanes

I never thought that we would end this way

All of the stars lost in the evening haze

And when I freeze, I know they're watching me

Forever now, we will always move

Another scream for the love in bloom

And when I thaw you'll hear me howl to the moon

You'll circle me and I'll circle you

Bursting in and then the folly that

Love wanes

Away

Lest you wait,

Await

Our love is deep when the ice has gone

Up to our waists wet from the thaw

Will make a man out of the lonely boy

I'll never see, it will be obvious

And when we know we will overflow

We never knew we'd walk right off the plank,

Hold onto me as we fall away

Plunge into the blue and have a crutch or two

or two

The moon wanes

Away
