音乐咖啡厅:Same side of the moon

  Lyrics      

Same side of the moon              By Corrinne May

I'm looking out the window
Where we sat to watch the stars
There's a chill¹ within the air
It makes my heart long for your touch
You may be miles away
But as I kneel² to pray
I see the same side of the moon

That we'll be looking on
When the world turns blue
And know that time and space
Can't come between me and you
We share the same side of the moon

And though you'll never see
All my tears shine through
I know I can't be that far from you
If we're both looking on the same side of the moon

I picture you across the oceans
In your corner of the world
I pray the wind will blow my voice
And gently whisper³ in your ear
Your night may be my day
And though the seasons change
It's still the same side of the moon

That we'll be looking on
When the world turns blue
And know that time and space
Can't come between me and you
We share the same side of the moon

And though you'll never see
All my tears shine through
I know I can't be that far from you
If we're both looking on the same side of the moon
I know I can't be that far from you
If we're both looking on the same side of the moon
