Followed your road till the sky ran out
|
Followed your love till love was in doubt
|
Followed your love till it never really was at all
|
Feeling stupid and hollow
|
Now the moon's gonna' follow me home
|
|
Waited for you till the snow fell down
|
Over my skin like a thin nightgown
|
Waited for you but you never came around at all
|
Waited for you till they pulled the plug
|
Bartender emptied out his big tip jug
|
They swept all the floors
|
Vacuumed the rugs and went home
|
Drank all I could swallow
|
Now the moon's gonna' follow me home
|
|
Time go easy on me tonight
|
I'm one of the lost sheep alright
|
Take what you must, take what you must
|
Of what I've lost as I have roamed
|
Let the moon follow me home
|
|
Followed your tears with a washing pail
|
I followed your story I followed your tail
|
Followed you straight through the
|
Doors of your jail cell too
|
Followed your voice in the darkness soft
|
A wind came through and carried it off
|
I followed your love till it never really was at all
|
Drank all I could swallow
|
Now the moon's gonna' follow me home
|
Drank all I could swallow
|
Now the moon's gonna' follow me home
|
