Drove deep into the Redwoods
And found a drive-in movie screen
And an owl to take the ticket
Lying in the passenger seat
I parked the car at the center of the clearing
Rolled down the window to catch the breeze
I parked the car at the center of the clearing
Rolled back my seat to get a look at the screen
The blue moon rose up behind me
Casting the shadows of the trees
Like mеn and mothers and children
On the drivе-in movie screen
I sat in the car, sat and watched
And listened to the wolves howl at the moon
I sat in the car, sat and watched
And listened to the moon
The figures blurred and faded as the moon rose up above me
And I peered around at the forest accomplice to this movie
I got out of the car with the moon at high noon
Stood in the shadow I cast on the ground
Got out of the car with the moon at high noon
Laid down in the dirt, face towards the light
Staring into the projection booth, I saw traces of a face like mine
In the mountain and valleys, dry lakes and craters of a stone-cold satellite
Got back in the car, drove it away
Back to a bright city and a warm bed
Got back in the car, drove it away
Headlights to spy on the trees
