Baby I've got some hard words to say
'Cause once they are said we must go separate ways
But it ain't right, got no peace in my soul
And lately it's taken it's toll
Used to be it was enough to love
Though the closest I got to your hand was a glove
Mindful of your misery I hushed the voice in me
Tried to wrap my love around you like the dark around the moon
Let my love surround you like a cinnamon cocoon
Oh but I have stayed too long in the shade
Blind to my own view
In the dark around the moon
Waters moving underneath ground
Through the veins of this earth in her blue liquid gown
Winding towards her destiny to join again with sea
I had come to regard us this way
That our love was a force too directed to sway
But even rivers must divide when falling rocks collide
Tried to wrap my love around you like the dark around the moon
Let my love surround you like a cinnamon cocoon
Oh but I have stayed too long in the shade
Blind to my own view
In the dark around the moon
Darlin' wrap my love around you like the dark around the moon
Baby let this love surround you like a cinnamon cocoon
Oh but I can stay no more in the shade
Oh blind to my own view
In the dark around the moon
