I see the moon. The moon sees me.
The moon sees somebody that I don't see.
God bless the moon. God bless me.
God bless the somebody that I don't see.
If I get to heaven before you do,
I'll make a hole and pull you through.
I'll write your name on every star.
That way the world won't seem so far.
when i was really little, my mom used to sit on the porch with my sisters and i at night - us in our "princess" nightgowns - and she would sing this. only, she said "that i wanna see," instead of "that i don't see." this post brought back great, but slightly sad in that nostalgic way, memories.
ReplyDeleteoh, and the moon picture is still incredible.
Awe. :) I'd never heard any version of this until I saw it at the beginning of Sarah Kay's TED talk video. (Link in post.) I love it! It gets stuck in my head all the time now.
