mary chapin carpenter – the moon and st. christopher (2018) lyrics
[verse 1]
i was young i spoke like a child
i saw with a childes 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 sp-ces
there’s two 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 curve
[chorus]
i relied upon the moon
i relied upon the moon
i relied upon the moon
and st. christopher
[verse 2]
i’ve paid my dues ’cause i have owed them
but i’ve paid a price sometimes
for being such a stubborn woman
in such stubborn times
i’ve run from the arms of lovers
i’ve run from the eyes of friends
i’ve run from the hands of kindness
i’ve run just because i can
and now i’m grown and i speak like a woman
and i see with a woman’s eyes
and an open door was to me now
like to the saddest of goodbyes
when it’s too late for turning back
i pray for the heart and the nerve
[chorus]
and i relied upon the moon
i relied upon the moon
i relied upon the moon
and st. christopher
i relied upon the moon
i relied upon the moon
i relied upon the moon
and st. christopher
to be my guide
