The moon shines on tent city The desert breeze blows in balmy air The oceans far, what a pity The wind blows through my hair I’m hitching a ride to my home city My mind is distracted with the thought Green grass and flowers where it’s pretty Beyond this place my imagination has long sought
The moon shines on tent city Another night has flown by And I sit here looking gritty Like a bird with broken wings that can’t fly Part of me is out there waiting Waiting another day Until I find her I’ll be stating That my time here wasn’t fully lived Since I’ve been away
