August Moon

Lyrics: Vangelis Kratsas Music: Vangelis Kratsas + A.I. From the record "Swans in the Red Lake". https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLftlqpQ83Ij1c9oFnb1tLxollAxRgOa73 Tears of heaven fill my heart, Maybe it’s time for a brand new start, The old man says that I dream a lot And though it’s true, I never cared at all, I built a house of glass And I don’t let anyone come in This is my own palace, The place where I’m the king. Warriors dressed in black and red They want to catch me alive or dead, The old man says that I should run away But I know this is a coward’s way I’ll build a wall of glass And I won’t let anyone pass through, Noone can defeat The guardian of the August moon. I hear voices all around, They come from friends that let me down And they say that I must give up, There is nothing left to do but that, But the old man smiles And stays by my side, Inside my house of glass, We’ll stand alone and fight. Finally, the warriors smashed My thin and fragile wall of glass They attacked us with their swords of steel They were certainly determined to kill, But suddenly they stopped And then I knew They were blinded By the light of the August moon.
