Aphrodite's Child - The Shepherd And The Moon Lyrics
Do you know the storyOf the shepherd who'd turnAnd took the river moon in his armsListen to the storyMainly if you cannot readOf the man who loved the womanYou can tuck it up in your mindYou would like to catch the moonlightBut you know the thing is not rightFor all of us have some secrets to hideDo you know the storyOf the shepherd who'd turnAnd took the river moon in his armsListen to the storyMainly if you cannot readOf the man who loved the womanWoman was a sting in the thornYou will get the moon for the hornYou'll try to catch it and you'll drownOf the moon you were much too fullNowadays... people of the mountains say:"That the Gods put the moon high up in the skySo that the men might not be tempted to steal it"Do you know the storyOf the shepherd who'd turnAnd took the river moon in his armsListen to the storyMainly if you cannot readOf the man who loved the womanRound in the depths of your mindFor today the moon is too highShepherd tried to catch a sunriseYou might be more lucky if you tryDo you know the storyOf the shepherd who'd turnAnd took the river moon in his armsListen to the storyMainly if you cannot readOf the man who loved the womanLa, la, la, la...
