When I was young I spoke like a child, And I saw with a childs eyes And an open door was to a girl, Like the stars are to the skies Its funny how the world lives up to all your expectations With adventures for the stout of heart, And the lure of the open spaces Theres two lanes running down this road, And whichever side you are on Accounts for where you want to go, And what you are running from Back when darkness overtook me, On a blindmans curve CHORUS I relied upon the moon, I relied upon the moon I relied upon the moon and St. Christopher Now Ive paid my dues cause I have owed them, But Ive paid a price sometimes For being such a stubborn woman, In such stubborn times I have run from the arms of lovers, I have run from the eyes of friends I have run from the hands of kindness, I have run just because I can Now Ive grown and I speak like a woman, And I see with a womans eyes And an open door is to me now, Like the saddest of goodbyes Well its too late for turning back, And I pray for the heart and nerve . CHORUS repeat chorus I relied upon the moon, I relied upon the moon I relied upon the moon and St. Christopher to be my guide
