[Verse 1] Let the moon rise come In the cold gray dawn Of the night [Refrain] 'Cause it comes from the east It sets in the west The fools rush in 'cause they're always blessed Till the nights get cold and lonely All alone [Chorus] So the fool rides on In the cold gray dawn From the night 'Cause it comes from the east It sets in the west The fools rush in 'cause they're always blessed Till the nights get cold and lonely All alone [Verse 2] Dreams of old roll on To the dark of the night The night gets cold with your laughter Until your days drift on by And the nights long you've waited Just to cry [Chorus] So the fool rides on In the cold gray dawn From the night 'Cause it comes from the east It sets in the west The fools rush in 'cause they're always blessed Till the nights get cold and lonely All alone [Bridge] Who can stand to watch The prodigal fly Let the fool ride on Let him sing his song tonight Let him hold to the night 'cause we know he'll fly [Chorus] As the fool rides on In the cold gray dawn Of the night
