(Nanci Griffith)

Flippin' bottle caps through the ring around the moon

All alone on a Saturday night with the stars in bloom

I am a vision of my mother's dream come true

Built this house out in the hills

All by my own will

I've got love enough for two

But it's just me and this old moon

Chorus

And the sailors on the water

They all want the captain's daughter

They want her beauty and her youth

To grace their bow out on the sea

Me, I'm getting older and I'm plain

As plain as can be

Got a bank full of mother's dreams

Maybe mother just didn't see

That love would be the only thing

Her daughter would ever need

Oh, I am the heart not taken

The one thought not worth breakin'

I am the late blooming rose

With only her mother's dream to hold

On this less traveled road

Who really knows

Maybe the hearts not taken

Are truly made of gold

I'm gonna flip one more bottle cap up at the moon

I've got an early call with so much work to do

But, when I go inside I'm gonna let my back door slam

Mother, to tell the truth

I would trade your dream away

Just to hear some loved one say

I love you, too

Chorus

Say goodnight to the moon

I'll say I love you to the moon

And to my mother too

Buenos suenos to the moon


Mirror lyrics:

Buenos suenos to the moon

And to my mother too

I'll say I love you to the moon

Say goodnight to the moon

Chorus

I love you, too

Just to hear some loved one say

I would trade your dream away

Mother, to tell the truth

But, when I go inside I'm gonna let my back door slam

I've got an early call with so much work to do

I'm gonna flip one more bottle cap up at the moon

Are truly made of gold

Maybe the hearts not taken

Who really knows

On this less traveled road

With only her mother's dream to hold

I am the late blooming rose

The one thought not worth breakin'

Oh, I am the heart not taken

Her daughter would ever need

That love would be the only thing

Maybe mother just didn't see

Got a bank full of mother's dreams

As plain as can be

Me, I'm getting older and I'm plain

To grace their bow out on the sea

They want her beauty and her youth

They all want the captain's daughter

And the sailors on the water

Chorus

But it's just me and this old moon

I've got love enough for two

All by my own will

Built this house out in the hills

I am a vision of my mother's dream come true

All alone on a Saturday night with the stars in bloom

Flippin' bottle caps through the ring around the moon
