Saw it in a dream
A girl rides across her native land
Running for her life
On a painted horse as fast as she can

I could tell that she was restless
I could see she was afraid
Only the Moon to guide her way

Spirit of the moonrise
Carry me home
Spirit of the moonrise
Riding alone

She's a lonely child
Longing for the one who left her side
Lost out in the wild
Knowing hungry wolves might hear her cry

If only I could help her
With a wave of my hand
I’d promise her the Moon would never die

Spirit of the moonrise
Carry me home
Spirit of the moonrise
Riding alone
See upcoming rock shows
Get tickets for your favorite artists

She rode beyond the mountains
Through the valleys below
Following her heart into the night

Spirit of the moonrise
Carry me home
Spirit of the moonrise
Spirit of the moonrise
Carry me home
Spirit of the moonrise
Riding alone

Riding alone

Carry me home
Spirit of the moonrise
Ooh, spirit of the moonrise

Spirit of the moonrise
