On This Side Of The Moon

(Mark Alan Springer)

Some folks looks through a telescope

And dream of flying high above the stars

They say it won’t be long

‘Til we can haul on a ship to Mars

I’m just a simple man

There’s a lot that I don’t know

But as long as you’re here with me

I just assume stay home

On this side of the moon

Things are going my way

Your love keeps shining through

Even when it rains

There’s nowhere else I’d rather be

I’m happy standing in these shoes

With you here in my life

The world is looking bright

On this side of the moon

Sometines on a clear night

We pulled out a chair in the yard

And I’m always amazed

At the good lord can make so many stars

But I know I’d feel out of place

Longing through the milky ways

All you expect a astronaut

I’d think I’d rather stay

On this side of the moon

Things are going my way

Your love keeps shining through

Even when it rains

There’s nowhere else I’d rather be

I’m happy standing in these shoes

With you here in my life

The world is looking bright

On this side of the moon
