The Child of the Moon

[Verse 1]
Under silver leaves
I tiptoe slow
My little shadow
Follows the snow

In my pocket
A sleeping star
I hear it singing
From afar

[Pre-Chorus]
Hush now, little heart
The night is near
Moon on my shoulders
Drifting clear

[Chorus]
I am the moon child
(moon child)
I am the moon child
(so bright)
Carry me higher
Past the trees tonight
I am the moon child
(moon child)
I am the moon child

[Verse 2]
Paper boats of cloud
Float by my hand
I leave my footprints
In the sand

The owls all bow low
As I go by
With a bowl of starlight
In my eye

[Pre-Chorus]
Hush now, little heart
The night is near
Moon on my shoulders
Drifting clear

[Chorus]
I am the moon child
(moon child)
I am the moon child
(so bright)
Carry me higher
Past the trees tonight
I am the moon child
(moon child)
I am the moon child

[Bridge]
If I lose my way
Call my name
In the velvet dark
I stay the same

Little laugh in the air
Soft and far
Guiding me back home
To who you are

[Final Chorus]
I am the moon child
(moon child)
I am the moon child
(so bright)
Carry me higher
Past the trees tonight
I am the moon child
(moon child)
I am the moon child
