Moonpie Dreams

Moonpie Dreams - Kate Campbell/Rodney Crowell/Nanci Griffith

Once every May Day

We stayed at her house

With doilies on tables

And cats on the couch

She played me records

The ones he adored

The music they danced to

Before the war

And now sometimes I see her

And she seems so lonely

Standing there

In my moonpie dreams

He wagged his tail

When Jim let him in

He came from the next block

And they were best friends

He'd bring the paper

Without a tear

He knew his friend Jim

Would always be there

Now he waits at the back door

But it's just him only

Sitting there

In my moonpie dreams

Now I look out my window

And wish you could hold me

You're always there

In my moonpie dreams
