Moonshadow Lyrics

Artist: Cat Stevens

Refrain:
Oh, I'm bein' followed by a moonshadow, moon shadow, moonshadow---
Leapin and hoppin' on a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow---

Verse 1:
And if I ever lose my hands, lose my plough, lose my land,
Oh if I ever lose my hands, Oh if I won't have to work no more.

Verse 2:
And if I ever lose my eyes, if my colours all run dry,
Yes if I ever lose my eyes, Oh if I won't have to cry no more.

Refain

Verse 3:
And if I ever lose my legs, I won't moan, and I won't beg,
Yes if I ever lose my legs, Oh if I won't have to walk no more.

Verse 4:
And if I ever lose my mouth, all my teeth, north and south,
Yes if I ever lose my mouth, Oh if I won't have to talk...

Bridge:
Did it take long to find me? I asked the faithful light.
Did it take long to find me? And are you gonna stay the night?

Refrain
moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow.

Cat Stevens has been quoted as saying it is a song about hope. No matter what the struggle, there is hope. The "light" is not what but, Whom.
