Calico Moon - Chris Ledoux

The Calico Moon was rising that night

Shining like gold on the water

Me and my brother we hijacked a row boat

Set out like Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer

Oars dippin' diamonds

As we rowed across the lake

An owl sang to who knows who

Lost in the wonder, under the Calico Moon

The calico moon lay soft on your skin

It was a night that I’ll always remember

Our hearts filled with fire, holding each other

Love flowed as wild as the river

We talked of how we were meant to be

And how sometimes dreams do come true

We were young lovers, under the Calico Moon

Now that old moon has rolled around

So many times since then

And here we are still gazing at the night

We’re captured in the magic of its spell again

You and I

The Calico Moon wakes in the East

And hangs on an amber horizon

When I see its light dance in your eyes

It reminds me of how lucky I am

Where would I be if I didn’t have you?

Lord only knows what I’d do

Thank God in heaven for you

And the Calico Moon
