High Moon by Tommy Ashby Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tommy Ashby & Lydia Clowes]
We lie in the sun counting the clouds
The wind in the barley is singing out loud
The blackbird will call and tell us the time
But time is for passing and I give you mine

[Chorus: Tommy Ashby & Lydia Clowes]
Oh, night
I can't believe that you found us so soon
But you're right
No use in wondering how high the moon

[Verse 2: Tommy Ashby & Lydia clowes]
The heat of the day is fading for now
The gold of the sunlight is taking a bow
We waltz through the fields tipsy on wine
The trees in the twilight are swaying in time

[Chorus: Tommy Ashby & Lydia Clowes]
Oh, night
I can't believe that you found us so soon
But you're right
No use in wondering how high the moon
[Post-Chorus: Tommy Ashby & Lydia Clowes]
Oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
When the vain is falling in line
Oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
When the party is over
Oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
When the vain is falling in line
Oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
When the party is over

[Verse 3: Tommy Ashby & Lydia Clowes]
The stars all lay low biding their time
Orion the hunter is all I can find
Over the hills, Phoebe will rise
But stars don't compare to the light in your eyes

[Chorus: Tommy Ashby & Lydia Clowes]
Oh, night
I can't believe that you found us so soon
But you're right
No use in wondering how high the moon
