Smile of the Moon

(Suzanne McNeil)
Smile of the Moon

Written by Suzanne McNeil

Verse 1

The dust on the window has a story a broken statue that says I’m sorry
It fell apart at the wishing well, what went wrong it’s hard to tell
Every whisper she remembers that first night in September promises when the lights are low- in the reality of light seem to go

Chorus
She didn’t see the left over smile of the moon
as she was leavin’ shinin down on her gloom- she’s be home soon- oh left over smile of the moon- left over smile of the moon

Verse 2

The only light on that highway she’d be in Boston in just one more day there were no trees where he came from just one more trip around the sun

Chorus


On the road she made a deal, she’d call once more and if he was there, maybe she’d turn around- in the cold phone booth that night there was no wrong there was no right, busy signal was the sound

Chorus

Left over smile
Left over smile
Left over smile
