lyrics

The big bright moon grew a circle in the sky
I noticed it as I went walking on by
the water, the cold, the cold water.

It gave a light that was smooth and sort of blue
It lit my way as I went walking down to
the water, the cold, the cold water.

I don't know much about the moon
How it rises and falls
And how grows a sure circle around it
Anytime an icy night falls, an icy night falls

Long ago on a cold California night
I saw the moon sink 'neath a ridge to my right
And my knees they buckled beneath me

I have a friend who said he'd heard someone say
"If you hold your hands out after a cold winter's day
And the full moon is rising above you."

"You can feel it's heat on the center of your palm."
But it gets so cold that it doesn't take me long
To put my hands back deep in my pockets.

I don't know much about the moon
How it rises and falls
And how grows a sure circle around it
Anytime and icy night falls

I don't know much about the moon
How it rises and falls
And how grows a sure circle around it
Anytime an icy night falls, an icy night falls.
