Dancing On A White Moon - Shy People (1987)
[Transcribed by Dave Datta, and Bob Pietkivitch]
Dancing on a white moon with a twist like a century breeze
Moving through a typhoon, feel it sticking it's a cap on a dream
brother done what we learn
God had us start to roll
Occasionally feeling, the rust of love in my soul
You're not in my mind, don't need you
Whatever love I can find, I won't need you
With my emotional life
Aimless dreams chase in my heart,
Feeling like a loser in an unknown game
Walking just a fool in the backyard,
Getting wounded by the timeless jealous flame
Touching my heart like a silver knife,
As if drawn in a newsprint cartoon
Yelling for love!
While dancing on a white moon
You're not in my mind, don't need you
Whatever love I can find, I won't need you
With my emotional life
There's a freight train running through my brain,
A restless ego is a part of it's wheels
Silver flashes harbored in the shame,
Burning all that my soul feels
As the sun shines bright on both evil and good,
So let the Light of your eyes shine on me!
Respecting your way, yes I would,
Tied up by the rising tide of my dark sea
You're not in my mind, well I need you
Whatever love I can find, I will feed you
Through this emotional life
Again, you're not in my mind, well I need you
Whatever love I can find, I will feed you
Through this emotional life
Through this emotional life
Through this emotional life
Through this emotional life
