Laura Nyro Man In The Moon lyrics

Man in the moon, I ran past my home to your shore
To melt the arctic beat in my breast next to yours
It was just my fantasy for a real world

What do you hear? What is it we really share?
Do you know the depth of my need and my prayer?
Or is it just my fantasy for a new world?
It's true, you'll see it, baby
There's a new world comin' through

Is it just fine for us to live in a world that cannot give?
As for me, I know I'm strong and I belong in a new world
You'll see, you'll see it, baby
There's a new world in me


If you want me, you'll find me in a new world
I want love, respect and power to make a new world
I wanna raise my babies in a new world
Give them peace and happiness

You know you're the old world and I'm the new world
It's true, you'll see it, baby
The new world

Man in the moon
