[Standing On the Moon]
[Verse 1]
Standing on the moon
I got no cobweb on my shoes
I'm standing on the moon
I feel so alone and blue
See the Gulf of Mexico
As tiny as a tear
The coast of California
Must be somewhere over here
Over here
[Verse 2]
Standing on the moon
I see the battle rage below
Standing on the moon
I see the soldiers come and go
There's a metal flag beside me
Someone planted long ago
Old Glory standing stiffly
Crimson, white and indigo
Indigo
[Bridge]
I can see all of Southeast Asia
I can see El Salvador
I hear the cries of children
And the other songs of war
It's like a mighty melody
That reaches out down from the sky
Standing here upon the moon, I watch it all roll by
All roll by
All roll by
All roll by
[Verse 3]
Standing on the moon
Where talk is cheap and visions true
Standing on the moon
But I would rather be with you
Somewhere in San Francisco
On a back porch in July
Just looking up to heaven
At this crescent, crescent in the sky
In the sky
[Verse 4]
Standing on the moon
With nothing left to do
A lovely view of heaven
But I would rather be with you
Be with you
I'd rather be with you
I'd rather be with you
I'd rather be with you
I'd rather be with you
Yes, I'd rather be with you
[Outro]
Stand, standing on, I'm standing on the moon
Stand, standing on, I'm standing on the moon
Standing on the moon
Rather, rather be with you
Than stand, stand, stand
[Instrumental Break]
Standing on the moon
Yes, I'd rather be with you
[Instrumental Break]
Standing on the moon
I'd rather be with you
Stand, stand, standing on
I'd rather be with you
[Halcyon Days]
[Verse 1]
Some rise by wrong
Some by virtue fall
Those in judgement could be guiltiest of all
We'll wash it all away
Oh, I'd love to bring you on a silver tray
Some halcyon days
Got to bring you
Let sing it to you
[Verse 2]
And some rise by wrong
Some by virtue fall
Those in judgement would be guiltiest of all
Yes, wash it all away
I'd just love to bring you on a silver tray
Some halcyon days
[Outro]
Just let me bring you all tonight
I'd just love to bring you
I'd just love to bring you on a silver tray
Hey, some halcyon days
Thank you, everybody, so much
I'd just love to bring you, bring you, bring you, bring you, bring you
Bring you on a silver tray some halcyon days
Bring over, hey, hey
Some halcyon days, days, days, days, days
Thank you so much
Thank you so much for coming
Great night, appreciate you being part of it
Thank you very much
