Moon Is High - Nashville Cast, Clare Bowen, Jonathan Jackson

The moon is high

It’s not the only one

I’m alone and I’m traveling

So shine a light on me

Down through my balcony

You’ll send me spinning

Or you’ll find me howling

I’m under your window

My shades are drawn tight

He’s up there with you

He’s been up here all night

Do you favor a man when he breaks down and begs

Or a boy with his tail dragging between his legs

I feel vicious inside

and the moon is high

Now the sky’s full of rain

And I’m starting to weigh

And I want to tear a strip from the firmament

I dream your near

Whispering endearments

If I could take that full moon and make it more permanent

I’m close to your window

Are you tired of it now

Is your light in the gutter

And all you’ve allowed

Do you favor a man when he breaks down and begs

Or a boy with his tail dragging wherever you leave

Now I’m in full cry

And the moon is high

Now I’m in full cry

And I want to tear the strip from your firmament

Howling for your love

I’m howling for your love

I’m howling for your love
