Leif Vollebekk - Moondog

〈Verse〉
(One, two, one, two, three)
When I was young and I was barely free
Just a boy upon my mother's knee
Was that the wind howlin' through the trees
Was that you, calling to me?
Calling to me

You showed me where the candle flame was black
I said 'Aw baby, I never noticed that'
And with your breasts pressed against my back
You were laughing in the bath
Laughing in the bath

〈Chorus〉
Take a look at this face of mine
Is it cool, it it crystalline?
Or a pale imitation, brand new tessellation?
Tell me what you see
Moondog, you're all I need

〈Verse〉
My mind keeps circling back to you
Just like the universe, it begs me to
What frightens me is what frightens you
Oh baby, what are we gonna do?
What are we gonna do?

I'm breaking free with a deeper will
The one I seek is a seeker still
Always reaching, never teaching
I know nothing baby, who am I to instruct?
Moondog, you're out of luck

〈Bridge〉
Sometimes it's magic, sometimes it's hid
Half of magic is just hiding
I always loved you, just didn't know I did
One day I just let the light in
It was a barn burner in Galena, Illinois
Fate hit me like a bolt of lightning

〈Refrain〉
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain

Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
It's my life and I'm livin' in it
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
It's my life and I'm livin' in it

Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
Tired of livin' in the pourin' rain
It's my life and I'm livin' in it

〈Outro〉
Sometimes it's magic, sometimes it's hid
Half of magic is just hiding
