THE BALLAD OF MOON VALLEY ROAD
Words and music by Kimm Rogers

Again I’m alarmed by the morning clock
Got to get going
Run my fingers through my hair
In the mirror my blank stare is only growing
Get into my car, I’m on my way I’m coming I’m going
I gotta be there now and I’m not there now
I’m up against the wind that’s blowing

But somehow in the nick of time
And not a moment too soon
I am struck with wonder as I gaze upon the moon . . .

You said this, I thought you said that
Now we misunderstand
Somebody’s hurt now, I can guarantee
This is not what I planned
They say that honesty is a good policy
But right I’m not sure
As a brown-haired girl in a platinum blond world
The lines of truth are often a blur

But somehow in the nick of time
And not a moment too soon
I am struck with wonder as I gaze upon the moon

Living in these crazy times, beauty can be hard to find that’s pure
But there’s something ‘bout this moonlit night
That lets me know it’s gonna be alright
And I’m again reassured

Get this get that live your life in seconds flat
I feel the pressure
What you got not who you are don’t you want to be a star
‘Cause that’s the way we measure
Who’s above who’s below who’s got a million miles to go
To give up on misgiving
Oh live it up let it die I got a million questions why we live the way we’re living

But somehow in the nick of time and not a moment too soon
I am struck with wonder as I gaze upon the moon
