Sister Moonshine

Supertramp Supertramp

Oh, when I was a small boy
Well, I could see the magic in a day
Oh, but now I'm just a poor boy
Well, maybe it's the price you have to pay
If you lock your dreams away
If no one wants to listen, what's the story?

I wish I'd been a minstrel
Just think of all the maidens I could call
Oh, I wish I'd been a gypsy
Then maybe I could read the crystal ball
'Cause surrounded by these walls
Just makes me feel uneasy

I said hey, Sister Moonshine
Won't you send me a little sun
I said hey, Sister Moonshine
I'm a stranger to everyone
So make us all laugh
Make us all cry
Make us all give
Make us all try
Give us a secret
Show us a light
Strike up the music
Light up the sky

Oh, if I was a lion
Well, I could be the king of all the plains
Oh, and if is was an eagle
Well, maybe I could fly above the rain
Oh, fly above the pain
But I know I'm only foolin'

I said hey, Sister Moonshine
Won't you send me a little sun
I said hey, Sister Moonshine
I'm a stranger to everyone
So make us all laugh
Make us all cry
Make us all give
Make us all try
Give us a secret
Show us a light
Strike up the music
Light up the sky

I said hey, Sister Moonshine
I said hey, Sister Moonshine
I said hey, Sister Moonshine
I said hey, I said hey, Sister Moonshine
