Half Moon Lyrics - We Are The Tide - Blind Pilot

That morning sky gave me a look 

So I left while you were sleeping 

That's all it took 

And I chalked a line south down the coast 

Going where my thirst was open 

For the things that I don't know 

Going where I wasn't paying 

For the hurt that I owe 

One half moon sleeping by the creeks 

And a woman put me under 

Her barn roof for a week 

I knew her voice before she spake 

I saw a grave dug by a preacher 

Just to see what it would make 

So hold high how faint your reasons 

(Boy, you'll never get on) 

Don't you forget you come from nothing 

(Boy you'll never get on) 

That wind is calling my name 

And I won't wait 

Or I'll never get on. 

It's not hard to live like a ghost 

I just haunt all that I've wanted 

And leave what I don't 

I dreamt a trail up to the sky 

And my brothers built the propellers 

Just to see how far they'd fly 

So hold high how faint your reasons 

(Boy you'll never get on) 

Your flashing sparrows chasing with them 

(Boy, you'll never get on) 

Don't you forget you come from nothing 

(Boy, you'll never get on) 

That wind is calling my name 

And I won't wait 

Or I'll never get on
