Wrapped Around the Moon Lyrics

The old folks are sleeping in their houses where they're keeping
All the sounds of blood and weeping from a stone age long ago
Did you think I've been deceiving when I told you I was leaving
In all the letters you're receiving full of things that you don't know
Daddy, will you pass the spoon.
Daddy, I'll be an old man soon
Daddy, can you hear this tune?
It is the tune of the room of forgiveness
And it's wrapped around the moon
Wrapped around the moon

So don't consider me uncouth, for in the vineyards of your youth
You'll find some traces of the truth right where you left them when you died
If I appear to act unusual just consult your family bible
Even Christ lived by survival. Day to day he lived to hide

For the statues of the dead are but the symbols in your head
Of the simple things he said to the people in the street
And the cliches you abide in, or the prisons that we cried in
But I've had my final hiding, it's time to stand on my own feet
Daddy, will you pass the spoon.
Daddy, I'll be an old man soon
Daddy, can you hear this tune?
It is the tune of the room of forgiveness
And it's wrapped around the moon
Wrapped around the moon

Daddy, will you pass the spoon.
Daddy, I'll be an old man soon
Daddy, can you hear this tune?
It is the tune of the room of forgiveness
And it's wrapped around the moon
Wrapped around the moon
Now the sun is slowly rising over this town I've been despising
And I can hear the local choir sing 'If glory to The Lord'
The preacher's heart grows feeble as he mumbles in his steeple
Before the gathering of the people and the strumming of the chord

At the last bend of the highway you can say I did it my way
As you approach the final gateway passed the stone faced lion's stare
And I'm sure that I'll see you there if the weather stays this fair
I will complete my trip and cut my hair, simply ready to do anything and travel everywhere

Daddy, will you pass the spoon.
Daddy, I'll be an old man soon
Daddy, can you hear this tune?
It is the tune of the room of forgiveness
And it's wrapped around the moon
Wrapped around the moon
