Moonchild Lyrics

Chris Cornell

Open your arms to the lonely shine
Lonesome as gold in a poor mans smile
See how the moon is full
Follow the push and pull
Follow the ebb and flow in the breathing tide
Come on moonchild, youre so far away tonight
The door is falling open and were flying wild
Cat on the road, down in the living night
See how the black dog grins
In the diamond light
Were dreaming and were real
Were broken and were healed
Give in to what you feel over what you see
Come on moonchild, youre so far away tonight
The door is falling open and were flying wild
Come on moon flower
Youre so far away from now
You could bloom forever in the hour
And when if is only yes and no
And now becomes too soon
I know youll be alright if you only
Come away to the moon
In the blue shine
Come on moonchild, youre so far away tonight
The door is falling open and were flying wild
Come on moon flower
Youre so far away from now
You could bloom forever in the hour
