Mary Chapin Carpenter Miscellaneous The Moon And St. Christopher (Mary Chapin Carpenter) When I was young I spoke like a child, and I saw with a child's eyes And an open door was to a girl like the stars are to the sky It's funny how the world lives up to all your expectations With adventures for the stout of heart, and the lure of the open spaces There's 2 lanes running down this road, whichever side you're on Accounts for where you want to go, or what you're running from Back when darkness overtook me on a blind man's curve I relied upon the moon, I relied upon the moon I relied upon the moon and Saint Christopher Now I've paid my dues cuz I have owed them, but I've paid a price sometimes For being such a stubborn woman in such stubborn times Now I've paid my dues cuz I have owed them, but I've paid a price sometimes For being such a stubborn woman in such stubborn times Now I have run from the arms of lovers, I've run from the eyes of friends I have run from the hands of kindness, I've run just because I can But now I'm grown and I speak like a woman and I see with a woman's eyes And an open door is to me now like the saddest of goodbyes It's too late for turning back, I pray for the heart and the nerve And I rely upon the moon, I rely upon the moon I rely upon the moon and Saint Christopher I rely upon the moon, I rely upon the moon I rely upon the moon and Saint Christopher |
