When The Moon Slips Under the Sky
(Listen) clip

It was old but it ran so I drove it around town
Stopping for a sandwich, shake , and fries
Or to talk to the girls who'd gather in the parking lot
When the moon slipped under the sky

They'd dance Saturday night in the old abandon barn
Their shadows smiled never asking why
I used to stand away and watch their shadows play
While the moon slipped under the sky

Skating
The organ player played our parent's favorite songs
But still we sang along
In a whispered lullaby
As the moon slipped under the sky

Carrying dreams we searched to make them real
Thinking then that dreams would become lives
Only to find they were ways to pass the time
While the moon slipped under the sky

I still have that car in a fading photograph
Sometimes I wish I could go back for ride
And watch the shadows dance
To dreams warp'd in romance
When the moon slips under the sky
