Behind a Pale Moon

Behind a pale moon is where I reside
The sight of my home of where I was born
 
And where I once lived is now a blue sea
That's floating afar where I'll never be
 
Now that I'm away but maybe one day
I'll toss down a line I wove with my hands
 
That's made of moon grass to wait for a tug
And reel in the catch I hope will be you
 
I see in the net all shiny and new
Or throw you right back so stay if you will
 
The stars in our wake to pull in a haul
The catch of the day I'll share it with you
 
Eat moon fish with me then sleep as the night
Glows deep from the *Way's soft light in the dark
 
We'll be like moon worms that curl up to kiss
And orbit through space, a pale moon like this.
 
 
*Way's = Milky Way
