Voyage Of The Moon - Donovan

作词：Donovan Leitch

作曲：Donovan Leitch

The moon is like a boat my love

Of lemon peel afloat my love

And with a sail of gauze my love

She seems to slightly pause

Upon her silent way

All on her silent way

I see her pearly decks my love

Set in with twinkling specks my love

I see her pearly mast my love

Far from her seashell past

And gently does she sway

All on her starry way

Of silk they have been spun my love

Her ropes that limply run my love

Down to her carved prow my love

Down to her mermaid prow

And softly does she sway

All on her starry way

All in the Sea of Sky my love

The moonships sail and fly my love

Though many are their kind my love

Though all need but one wind

To make their starry way

To make their starry way

And there will come a time my love

O may it be in mine my love

When men will proudly rise my love

And board to sail the skies

Moonships from all the spheres

Moonships from all the spheres

The men he bathed in light my love

The women clothed in white my love

All in that woundrous fleet my love

As each the other meets

Will smile and softly sing

Will smile and softly sing

And on some distant sand my love

The ships will gently land my love

Fair folk will meet them there my love

With golden flowing hair

And great will be their joy

And great will be their joy
