Moonlight Dripping   Year: 2003 | Run Time: 3:08

Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI) ©2003

come in here and have a taste
hey really what's one more hopeless case
after all that's been said and all that's been done
there's a lot more said than ever gets done

threw it all in a pack and left with a haste
you walk away from once was never yours in the first place
at the bar of what it might cost
check all your burdens at the foot of the cross

her lips were red and her hair was brown
and you're feeling like the luckiest kid in town
she says i'll follow you well to the ends of the earth
said i'm not going that far for what it's worth

i really love to see you like this
the moonlight dripping from your fingertips
when the short wave dies and there's no one to listen
stars going cold in your solar system

it's thick and thin and off through bad weather
it takes just a promise to bind you together
you put all your love where it hurts the most
expect a little visit from the Holy Ghost

this ground was barren this place was dry
that's a long time before i looked in your eyes
you spend a lifetime trying to find the words to use
to tell about the thing that you're trying to lose

Did You Know?

Bill has referred to this as a "less forlorn" version of "Solar System."
