Coyote Moon Lyrics

Coyote Moon (Pat Robinson, Bob Strom) Silent in the darkness, no stranger to the street A shadow passing through the night, to an ancient beat You thought you heard a whisper, or was it just the wind Calling to a neon moon, coyote He comes to steal your fantasies, and violate your dreams He has a million answers weaving through his million schemes You look into obscurity for what naked eyes can't see Howling to a neon moon, coyote CHORUS He's heard all your confessions And blessed you with his lies He brings forbidden treasures We get through compromise You take him to your hideaway, he holds you in his arms A time of resignation, you surrender to his charms Shackled by the moment, not wanting to break free Crying to a neon moon, coyote Carelessly you wager, that your sins will be forgiven You've said all your Hail Marys, laid it all on your religion All you wanted was adventure, a chance to spread your wings Singing to a neon moon, coyote CHORUS Irrepressible by nature, uncompromising style A survivor of the corridors where prayers are in denial He gave you what you wanted, you've taken what you need Calling to a neon moon, coyote He's found a place inside your soul, never embraced before He's found the key that will unlock, your heart's unopened door Inhibitions crashing, on a bed of flaming silk Wailing to a neon moon, coyote CHORUS You're not another victim, it's his predatory way You're the blood he craves at night, to get through another day You satisfy a hunger from a thousand years ago Howling to a neon moon, coyote Shameless in desire, you still dream of him at night You've lost your faith and innocence, but still know wrong from right Sometimes you think you hear him, just outside your door Crying to a neon moon, coyote
