Lyrics:

Call her moonchild
Dancing in the shallows of a river
Lovely moonchild
Dreaming in the shadow
of the willow.

Talking to the trees of the
cobweb strange
Sleeping on the steps of a fountain
Waving silver wands to the
night-birds song
Waiting for the sun on the mountain.

She's a moonchild
Gathering the flowers in a garden.
Lovely moonchild
Drifting on the echoes of the hours.

Sailing on the wind
in a milk white gown
Dropping circle stones on a sun dial
Playing hide and seek
with the ghosts of dawn
Waiting for a smile from a sun child.

(including "The Dream" and "The Illusion").

  • Why do you people fight over music?

  • @jabforallmankind Because beauty and art is based almost solely on opinions. People have, sometimes, completely different ones. Thus, one person feels compelled to say something "negative" where they shouldn't. Another person's opinion is probably very strong for this music, so they feel as if they should correct them, or maybe even defend the music, or their own thoughts. Music is a very reasonable thing to argue about, but it is very annoying and unnecessary.

  • @jabforallmankind They fight over identity, although misplaced, something very well worth fighting for.

  • 9:04 is just freaking awesome. does anyone know if they ever branched off of that and put in into a full song or was it just for kicks? i need more damn it!

  • do people why you music fight over?

  • @jabforallmankind HEY NO ONE MESSES WITH MY DADDY!

  • @jabforallmankind Do you really expect anyone to respect your frustration when you start out with YOU PEOPLE?. That's rude in itself.

  • @LanceHertford Thats so horrible.... I'm sorry.....

  • the 1st kiss with my girlfriend was with these song
