Your moon has come out tonight
Round as crying eye
Round as a ringlet of smoke
from your smoke signal sky

I am the oak and the maple
I have covered my roots
You are the dancing Virginia
In black leather boots

Come as the silver morning
Come as the dragonfly
Come as my sleeping sister
Through the midnight sky

Cover me with your fire's ashes
Cover me with your midnight veil
Cover me with your smokey river
Cover me dancing Virginia

There's a pain in my side
And it's killing me
There's a field of crows
Now a black sea

And I have called upon the hills
And I have called upon the soil
And they have screamed in my ear
"Where's your heart boy?"

Your moon has come out tonight
Round as crying eye
Round as a ringlet of smoke
From your smoke signal sky

Come as the silver morning
Come as the dragonfly
Come as my sleeping sister
Through the midnight sky

Cover me with you revelation
Cover me with your sorrow's tale
Cover me with your holy water
Cover me dancing Virginia

The gray elephant folds of adventure
The blue oasis of meditation
The feathered touch of a sleepy afternoon
Beneath the tent of a palmetto haven

And I'm rising upwards from my feet
As children run side by side with their elation
