Lyrics for Blue Moon Rose

I have a friend and she comes from the high plains Wise as the hills and fresh as the rains Took me an atlas to find her town To realize that the world is round I have a friend and she taught me daring Threw back the windows and let the air in She taught me how it's too easy to lie I had lots of my learning to do For all she knows Bless my blue moon rose And for all she knows Bless my blue moon rose I have a friend and we talk about books She comes around and she drinks while i cook She seems at home in her tiny blue jeans Whether she brings wide open spaces For all she knows Bless my blue moon rose And for all she knows Bless my blue moon rose I have a friend and she comes from the high plains Wise as the hills and fresh as the rains She seems at home in her tiny blue jeans Whether she brings wide open spaces For all she knows Bless my blue moon rose And for all she knows Bless my blue moon rose For all she knows Bless my blue moon rose For all she knows Bless my blue moon rose Bless my blue moon rose I have a friend and we talk about books She comes around and drinks while i cook I have a friend and she taught me daring Threw back the windows and let the air in
