lyrics

You saw the heavenly host on a Friday night
It was more than you could ever conceive
But if you want to get a view of eternity
You'll have to roll up your sleeves

17,000 miles
12 long years
Joy lies undiscovered
But for now just tears

Moon send down the sails
Lost where the other ones roam
Moon send down the sails
And the last ones roam

The last thing we saw when we left L.A.
Was a woman falling off of the pier
Right about then you turned to say
"I sure hope you know how to steer"

If we ever make it home, well
I hope we'll say
I ain't ever been proud of nothing
That just came my way

Moon send down the sails
Lost where the other ones roam
Moon send down the sails
And the last ones roam
Off the front porch and down to the sea
Roam off the front porch and down to the sea
Roam off the front porch and down to the sea

Moon send down the sails
Moon send down the sails
Moon send down the sails
Lost where the other ones roam
Moon send down the sails
And the last ones roam
