Moon At The Window - Joni Mitchell

作词：Joni Mitchell

作曲：Joni Mitchell

It takes cheerful resignation

Heart and humility

That's all it takes

A cheerful person told me

Nobody's harder on me than me

How could they be

And nobody's harder on you than you

Betsy's blue

She says tell me something good

You know I'd help her out if I only could

Oh but sometimes the light

Can be so hard to find

At least the moon at the window

The thieves left that behind

People don't know how to love

They taste it and toss it

Turn it off and on

Like a bathtub faucet

Oh sometimes the light

Can be so hard to find

At least the moon at the window

The thieves left that behind

I wish her heart

I know these battles

Deep in the dark

When the spooks of memories rattle

Ghosts of the future

Phantoms of the past

Rattle rattle rattle

In the spoon and the glass

Is it possible to learn

How to care and yet not care

Since love has two faces

Hope and despair

And pleasure always turns to fear

I find

At least the moon at the window

The thieves left that behind

At the window

The thieves left that behind

At least they left the moon

Behind the blind

Moon at the window
