lyrics
AQUEHONGA MOON
© Bob Wright
C Em F
Aquehonga Moon Slowly rising up beyond the Hook
Fm C G C
Charming anyone who cares to look Aquehonga Moon
Aquehonga Moon Don’t you find a cloud and try to hide
I’ll still see you right before my eyes Aquehonga Moon
F C G C
Just look down from a north shore hill The harbor glows below
F C G C
Pearly bridges and high-rise lights Still can’t steal the thrill
Of the Aquehonga Moon Crossing over through a starry plain
As it comes to visit us again Aquehonga Moon
Aquehonga Moon
Everybody wants to wish on stars
But I know that mine don’t go that far
Aquehonga Moon
Aquehonga Moon
It really doesn’t matter who you are
You can find it hanging by a star
Aquehonga Moon
You don’t need any telescopes
Or have to pay a fee
Just look up and it’s floating there
Reflected in the sea
Is the Aquehonga Moon
Smiling softly in a silver sky
Just a glimpse of it can make me cry
Aquehonga Moon
I hope that I can go there when I die Aquehonga Moon

about
Bob Wright/ Harbortown New York, New York
He is a multi-instrumentalist, an award winning songwriter and Bob Wright songs are often mistaken for traditional songs because their immigrant roots run deep beneath the surface of America and back to the places they came from for nurturing and inspiration. They surface in a modern world, constructed with a modern sensibility and a comforting resonance with the past. ... more
