The moon has come out tonight. Round as a crying eye Round as a ringle of smoke From your smoke signal sky I am the oak and the maple I have covered my roots You are the dancing Virginia In black leather boots Come as a silver morning Come as the dragonfly Come as my sleeping sister Through the midnight sky Cover me with your fire's ashes Cover me with your midnight veil Cover me with your smoky river Cover me, dancing Virginia There's a pain in my side And it's killing me There's a field of crows Now a black sea And I have called upon the hills And I have called upon the soil And they have screamed in my ear Where's your heart boy Cover me with your fire's ashes Cover me with your midnight veil Cover me with your smoky river Cover me, dancing Virginia Ooooooh (x a bunch) Your moon has come out tonight Round as a crying eye Round as a ringlet of smoke From your smoke signal sky Come as a silver morning Come as a dragonly Come as my sleeping sister Through the midnight sky Cover me with your fire's ashes Cover me with your midnight veil Cover me with your smoky river Cover me, dancing Virginia Cover me with your revelation Cover me with your sorrow's tale Cover me with your holy water Cover me, dancing Virginia The gray elephant folds of adventure The blue oasis of meditation The feathered touch of a sleepy afternoon Beneath the tent of a palmetto haven And I'm rising upwards from my feet As children run side by side with their elation Oooooh (x a bunch)
