Red Moon - Big Thief

Lyrics by：Adrianne Lenker

Composed by：Adrianne Lenker

Red moon rising like a fire in me

So many questions she asks them all to me

I have to answer most curiously

Scarlet angel I am too small to see

Earn earn shuffle 'round the big city

Burning the rubber down crossing the hot concrete

I'm gonna leave town there is someone to meet

She turns her head around a full three-sixty

Woo

Bedroom rising from an old growth tree

Bringing out the sawmill cutting the twelve-inch beams

Building a pattern the reservoir to fill with dreams

Rings like Saturn telling their old story

Windmills turn and turn eternally

What do you yearn for

Where do you long to be

I've been here before looking at the wild country

Open the screen door talking with Diane Lee

That's my grandma

Radio singing from the corner of the kitchen

I got the oven on I got the onions wishing

They hadn't made me cry filling the sink with dishes

Letting them air dry waiting for the wind's permission

Too many movies got me shivering and shy

Turning the lights out listening in the owl's eye

Glimmer like lightning under the violet sky

Shimmer like diamonds watching the red moon rise

Ooh
