In the Moonlight

Over the Grapevine two Eugene girls spilling Margaritas on the Shakespeare
Heading home for summer feet on the dash the future wide open before us
It would take me years to comprehend the things you said as we approached the
Society of cows millions on cows all waitin' for somethin'
And they glowed in the moonlight

Made It To Corning and then the Peugeot she started to sputter we didn't know
We would spend eight hours in the Texaco 'til we found out
She was dry as a bone
And the Bartles & James must have clouded our brains
And we glowed in the moonlight

Stars in my eyes squirrels in my head
Digging and burying all the things you said
Save it for later

You asked me why I was flirting so hard with the gasoline man I didn't know
He wasn't good looking even when he smiled you could count his teeth on your one hand
So we started to giggle like little girls do even when it's not funny

When we got to Mt Shasta we had to stop and anthropomorphize the mountain
She looked so pretty steady and strong standing alone in her nighty
Talkin' to God
And she glowed in the moonlight

Thinking she had the answer when all along it was you who said it
It was you who said it
It was you who said it
To yourself be true
