Sister Moonshine - Supertramp

Oh, when I was a small boy

Well, I could see the magic in a day

Oh, but now I’m just a poor boy;

Well maybe it’s the price you have to pay

If you lock your dreams away

If no-one wants to listen

What’s the story?

I wish I’d been a minstrel

Just think of all the maidens I’d recall

Oh, I wish I’d been a gypsy

Then maybe I could read the crystal ball

'Cause surrounded by these walls

Just makes me feel uneasy

I said: Hey, Sister Moonshine

Won’t you send me a little sun?

I said: Hey, Sister Moonshine

I’m a stranger to ev’ryone

So make us all laugh, make us all cry

Make us all give, make us all try

Give us the secret show us the lie

We’ll strike up the music and light up the sky

Oh, if I was a lion

Well I could be the king of all the plain

Oh, and if I was an eagle

Well maybe I could fly above the rain

Fly above the pain

But I know I’m only fooling

I said: Hey, Sister Moonshine

Won’t you send me a little sun?

I said: Hey, Sister Moonshine

I’m a stranger to ev’ryone

Make us all laugh, make us all cry

Make us all give, make us all try

Give us the secret show us the light

We’ll strike up the music and light up the sky

I said: Hey Sister Moonshine

I said: Hey Sister Moonshine
