Wrapped Around The Moon Lyrics
The old folks are sleeping in their houses where
they're keeping
All the sounds of blood and weeping from a stone age
long ago
Did you think I've been deceiving when I told you I was
leaving
In all the letters you're receiving full of things that
you don't know
Daddy, will you pass the spoon.
Daddy, I'll be an old man soon
Daddy, can you hear this tune?
It is the tune of the room of forgiveness
And it's wrapped around the moon
Wrapped around the moon
So don't consider me uncouth, for in the vineyards of
your youth
You'll find some traces of the truth right where you
left them when you died
If I appear to act unusual just consult your family
bible
Even Christ lived by survival. Day to day he lived to
hide
For the statues of the dead are but the symbols in your
head
Of the simple things he said to the people in the
street
And the cliches you abide in, or the prisons that we
cried in
But I've had my final hiding, it's time to stand on my
own feet
Daddy, will you pass the spoon.
Daddy, I'll be an old man soon
Daddy, can you hear this tune?
It is the tune of the room of forgiveness
And it's wrapped around the moon
Wrapped around the moon

Daddy, will you pass the spoon.
Daddy, I'll be an old man soon
Daddy, can you hear this tune?
It is the tune of the room of forgiveness
And it's wrapped around the moon
Wrapped around the moon
Now the sun is slowly rising over this town I've been
despising
And I can hear the local choir sing 'If glory to The
Lord'
The preacher's heart grows feeble as he mumbles in his
steeple
Before the gathering of the people and the strumming of
the chord
At the last bend of the highway you can say I did it my
way
As you approach the final gateway passed the stone
faced lion's stare
And I'm sure that I'll see you there if the weather
stays this fair
I will complete my trip and cut my hair, simply ready
to do anything and travel everywhere
Daddy, will you pass the spoon.
Daddy, I'll be an old man soon
Daddy, can you hear this tune?
It is the tune of the room of forgiveness
And it's wrapped around the moon
Wrapped around the moon
