The
campus is bordered
By the lunatic fringe
Bohemia's brewing
Around every bend
Folks dance on the ledges
Drawn to the edges
If dreams are their fortune
They seem to be doing all right
Under the full moon over Athens tonight
CHORUS:
There's a full moon over Athens tonight
The first blush of Autumn is almost in sight
The colors are sleeping in September skies
The world is falling, but I'm so alive
There's a full moon over Athens tonight
The journey is pleasant
The danger is real
The shadows they chase me
And nip at my heels
I can't seem to shake 'em
They know me too well
But they'll never catch me
As long as I walk in the light
Under the full moon over Athens tonight (CH)
BRIDGE:
The street is broad
The way so narrow
I'm not so certain
What's left and what's right
My calendar's empty
My conscience is clear
I rest in the arms
That carried me here
I'm as free as a sparrow in flight
Under the full moon over Athens tonight (CH)
