Ring Around the Moon

Sunday, December 9th, 2007

I’m going to file these lyrics under “some day”. I’ve tried and tried but can’t seem to get them to meld with a decent melody.

RING AROUND THE MOON
by Fitz

When a soldier comes home
From his tired platoon
A shell of himself and a
Ring around the moon

When a child disappears
In an angry monsoon
A village in tears and a
Ring around the moon

Will the skies ever wake up
And take up all this blame?
Do they tire of guilt and shame?

Will the answer ever come?
Will it ever be found?
or just circle ’round
and ’round
the moon…

When a once great love
Lies in anger and ruin
Two lovers sleep alone under a
Ring around the moon
