Under the Golden Moon

Who will stand with you
Under the golden moon
Arrows of starlight
Shining on your eyes

To cradle your gentle hand
Be the song in your ear
The soft waves sing
A tune we can only hear

Who will stand with you
Under the golden moon
Not my silver shadow
Vanquished by the waning tide

Let us yield the ageless battle
Of rock and sea and sand
And reach beyond the ocean
Grasp our outstretched hands

I will stand with you
Under the golden moon
Because love is measured in depth
my darling
Never by the boundless torrents
Of a tempestuous sea

Making up memories of you

A new song. Hats off to Steven Foster, Townes and maybe Leonard Cohen for this one. A little bit of a Carter scratch.

mp3–> Making up memories of you

Every night I sit alone and pray
that you will come home here to me
Every day I watch the sunflowers fade
And dream of what we too should be

On the dawn before the streetlights die
I fold my hands up to the stars
A lonely tear falls down before my eyes
My only prayer, to be where you are

Held by the great divide
Bound by the wild wide sea
Loose one the tides
Deep in the blues
Just making up memories of you

Today I walked alone by the old hotel
Where poets and lovers both died
I’d gladly give up this life of stone and steel
To see the world in your sea green eyes

Held on the great divide
Bound by the wide wild sea
Lost on the tides
Deep in the blues
And making up memories of you
Making up memories of you
