Harvest Moon Waltz

Down by the creek, where the waters hum Sweet orange scent in the morning sun Ripples catch the days gone by In the shadow of the southern sky Yeah, you can't find 'em, you can't grow 'em Pretty girls know 'em, country hearts show 'em [solo banjo] Up on the porch, the day's unwound Bare feet tapping on the weathered ground Laughter weaves through the pine tree lines While the fiddle sings and the heart entwines Yeah, sweet whispers, tender and warm Never do they fade, in the country charm [solo fiddle] Hand in hand, neath the harvest moon Dancing slow to an old love tune Here's a promise that time won't mar Eternal as the brightest star Yeah, where the river bends, love's story told In the dance of night, these bonds we hold
