Josh Ritter - Right Moves lyrics

All of a sudden you're back again I thought you were happy with whoever Or did you dream about me now and then Did you look up at the stars And feel something for the constellations All those lovers circling 'round their loves Slings and arrows darts and lions Rivers separating touch from touch The comedy of distance; the tragedy of separation Am I making all the right moves Am I singing you the right blues Is there a time when I could call you Just to see how you are doing I said how is it that you come back to me You don't need the stories of my scars Or in the stars to tell you nothing's free I traded all the innocence I ever had for hesitation I said 'won't you tell me where you've been' You put a finger to my lips And then you kiss me once and once again The crickets all leapt up and met the moon with a standing ovation Am I making all the right moves Am I singing you the right blues Is there a time when I could call you Just to see how you are doing I heard the night birds picking up the song You threw your hair back and you sang along And I realized that I might lose you you might lose me Drift apart in the night never know why and not know how I said 'what if we are like the northern sky What if there are things that come between us That we can't take back and we can't make right' You said 'I don't know darling but I'm here with you And we're coming to the chorus now' Am I making all the right moves Am I singing you the right blues Is there a time when I could call you Just to see how you are doing
