LYRICS
It took me a while to choose this song, but after skimming through my i Tunes it was obvious. Although the lyrics are good they are mot much without the music and singing. I love this song and everything about, it also holds many memories in it for me.
Honey and the Moon
Joseph Arthur
Honey and the Moon
Joseph Arthur
Don't know why I'm still afraid
If you weren't real I would make you up
now
now
I wish that I could follow through
I know that your love is true
and deep
as the sea
but right now
everything you want is wrong,
and right now
all your dreams are waking up,
and right now
I wish I could follow you
to the shores
of freedom,
where no one lives.
Remember when we first met
and everything was still a bet
in love's game
you would call; I'd call you back
and then I'd leave
a message
on your answering
machine
But right now
everything is turning blue,
and right now
the sun is trying to kill the moon,
and right now
I wish I could follow you
to the shores
of freedom,
where no one lives
Freedom
run away tonight
freedom, freedom
run away
run away tonight
We're made out of blood and rust
looking for someone to trust
without
a fight
I think that you came too soon
you're the honey and the moon
that lights
up my night
But right now
everything you want is wrong,
and right now
all your dreams are waking up,
and right now
I wish that I could follow you
to the shores
of freedom
where no one lives
freedom
run away tonight
freedom freedom
run away
run away tonight
we got too much time to kill
like pigeons on my windowsill
we hang around
ever since I've been with you
you hold me up
all the time I'm falling down
But right now
everything is turning blue,
and right now
the sun is trying to kill the moon,
and right now
i wish i could follow you
to the shores
of freedom
where no one lives
freedom
run away tonight
freedom freedom
run away
run away tonight
To me the song is all about wanting something that you can not have because it just isn't the right time. The song to me can be steered away from just being related to a relationship which is partially why i love it. The tune is very hopeful but the lyrics are sad, this is my favorite combination and most of my favorite songs are like this. The song is all about patience and acceptance.
Here is the actual music

I like the idea of all your dreams waking up. I think you can go places with that idea. What do you think?
ReplyDeletei really like that idea, there's so much to do with it because dreams vary. It is also very personal to the individual. Plus my poem fit with the idea because it is childlike and imaginative. thank you :)
