Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Jealous Moon lyrics

Saw her there in the fading light In full bloom on a summer night Nothing but the man in the moon Was standing in my way I was drunk on the warm sweet air Tangled up in her raven hair I should've known but I didn't care She'd be gone by the light of day Cause her eyes were shining brighter Than the light of the jealous moon And the stars fell all around her Well did I see you smilin' When the morning came too soon Did I see you smilin' Jealous moon, jealous moon Now the sun dances across my room I can smell the wine and her soft perfume The only thing that lets me know That an angel wasn't here You know I had this crazy dream She flew away on stolen wings But all she took was a pair of jeans When see saw that the coast was clear And her eyes were shining brighter Than the light of the jealous moon And the stars fell all around her Well did I see you smilin' When the morning came too soon Did I see you smilin' Jealous moon, jealous moon And her eyes were shining brighter Than the light of the jealous moon And the stars they fell all around her Well I thought I saw you smilin' When the morning came too soon Did I see you smilin' Jealous moon, jealous moon Jealous moon, jealous moon
