lifeblood: songs: lyrics: howl at the moon

(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
oh annie
i am sorry for the grief
young sister to my lover
i know both would rather be
on that rough road
through the woods of michigan
young and free and
building something on the land
where ya howl
at the moon

(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)

it'll cost you
but not enough to bring you down
that's been my lesson
ever since you drove me 'round
be a fighter
like the elders who have cried
oh mercy
we will not be satisfied
'til we are free
to howl
at the moon
one and all

(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)

'til we're all free
to howl
at the moon

i found her dancing
but i could not dance along
i found her singing
but i could not sing the song
being happy
was not a promise i could keep
in spite of all that
she has tried to deliver me
so we are free
to howl
at the moon
oh one and all

(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh)

oh mystery
won't you please deliver me
from this body of pain
that i give into every day
mmm
with my mind and with my breath
any fight that i have left

i found myself on the streets
of this college town
yearn for youth but
all i do is limp around
i'm the fool who
wants to wear that fickle crown
she says let 'em have it
let those kids fight to be found
'til they are free
to howl
at the moon
to fight
'til we're all free
to howl
at the moon
ah one and all
woo hoo
yeah
one and all
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
one and all
(ah oh eh eh ah oh)
(ah oh eh)
