Harvest Moon Songtext / Lyric

Sons and daughters of the dust

Strangers of time and place

For a while your limbs entwine

Holy marriage of the flesh

But I know your ways

Your ways are not mortal thought

Till the day breaks and shadows run

Run away






So shine on harvest moon

Cast you might on the ripening corn

And I look at your life

Hold you in my arms

With all the power in the days of youth

In the fullness of love



Fields run deep in golden swards

Hot summer winds blow through the corn

Cast off your sorrows now you stand

In the presence of the Lord

And your radiance shines

Like the moon of all innocent grace

To know that we dared breathe belief

To love again



So shine on harvest moon

Cast you might on the ripening corn

And I look at your life

Hold you in my arms

With all the power in the days of youth

In the fullness of love
