[Verse 1] Theres a house somewhere I know where the fires burnin All night long Theres a swing outside on the porch where I feel I could Rock away the dusk til the dawn And even though the wind may now be howlin The stars are bright and they push me on and on [Chorus] Theres a half moon risin in southeastern skies Theres a cold wind blowin across the great divide And the stars, they guide my way across the night Theres a half moon risin Pushin me on over another mountaintop Push me on, no, Ill never stop, push me on Theres a half moon risin in southeastern skies tonight [Verse 2] Now the shoes on my feet, those soles are broken down And my coat is tattered and worn And the hunger in my belly and the fever in my head Will vanish at my first glimpse of home And even though the rain may now be fallin The passion is deep, it pushes me on [Chorus] Theres a half moon risin in southeastern skies Theres a cold wind blowin across the great divide And the stars, they guide my way across the night Theres a half moon risin Pushin me on over another mountaintop Push me on, no, Ill never stop, push me on Theres a half moon risin in southeastern skies tonight See Yonder Mountain String Band LiveGet tickets as low as 68You might also like[Verse 3] Theres a still at dawn like the sound of your loves breath As she lies sleepin Down below me now in the valley is the only peace on earth That I ever want to know And her lips are as soft as I remember She alone has brought me back on home [Chorus] Theres a half moon risin in southeastern skies Theres a cold wind blowin across the great divide And the stars, they guide my way across the night Theres a half moon risin Pushin me on over another mountaintop Push me on, no, Ill never stop, push me on Theres a half moon risin in southeastern skies tonight
