lyrics

FLYING TO THE MOON ©music and lyrics by ajay mathur

a little short of a hundred winters,
weigh heavy upon her back and shoulders,
like the load that she carries on her final road of days
her eyes have seen, many years and season, coming slowly,
to a close, as the night approaches, now she just has her soul,
in prayer to save

look at the stars, look at the sun, how the years go down like summer rain, when you're havin' fun
living it up in the night like a shooting star, now the tide is slowly turning, tomorrow i might be flying to the moon

in her fragile fingers she holds some flowers, fresh, from the mornin' dew an' every day she spends some hours
in memories beside her husband's tomb
each mornin' makes her day a little shorter,
an' the road to the graveyard longer, to her agin’ bones
that her waning strength betray

look at the stars, look at the sun (look at the sun), how the years go down like summer rain, when you're havin' fun
living it up in the night like a shooting star, now the tide is slowly turning, tomorrow i might be flying to the moon

oh how the years go down with laughter and with tears of joy and pain, now the seasons change, tide will turn
and the infant spring will melt this snow away

look at the stars, look at the sun (look at the sun), how the years go down like summer rain, when you're havin' fun
living it up in the night like a shooting star, now the tide is slowly turning, tomorrow i might be flying to the moon
