The Moon And ST Christopher-Mary Black

[00:20.86]When I was young I spoke like a child, and I saw with a child’s eyes [00:30.09]And an open door was to a girl like the stars are to the sky [00:39.69]It’s funny how the world lives up to all your expectations [00:49.27]With adventures for the stout of heart, and the lure of the open spaces [00:58.99]There’s two lanes running down this road, and whichever side you’re on [01:08.48]Accounts for where you want to go, or what you’re running from [01:18.20]Back when darkness overtook me on a blind man’s curve [01:28.78]I relied upon the moon, I relied upon the moon [01:36.86]I relied upon the moon and Saint Christopher [02:01.42]Now I’ve paid my dues ’cause I have owed them, but I’ve paid a price sometimes [02:11.29]For being such a stubborn woman in such stubborn times [02:20.52]I have run from the arms of lovers, I’ve run from the eyes of friends [02:30.15]I have run from the hands of kindness, I’ve run just because I can [02:42.17]But now I’m grown and I speak like a woman and I see with a woman’s eyes [02:51.94]And an open door is to me now like the saddest of goodbyes [03:01.50]It’s too late for turning back, and I pray for the heart and the nerve [03:13.01]I rely upon the moon, I rely upon the moon [03:22.41]I rely upon the moon and Saint Christopher [03:32.83]I rely upon the moon, I rely upon the moon [03:43.51]I rely upon the moon and Saint Christopher [03:58.44]
