One Pass Guitar/Vocal demo. There is an overdub of a Cordoba FCWE and Takamine F370S arpeggios. They can only be heard as an overtone to the Main Acoustic which is bled into the Main vocal mic also.

Story behind the song
Not to give too much away, but the newborn moon is not just conveniently sensual, but also a metaphor for a new relationship.
Lyrics
1. What a surprise it was to see you standing there With the haunted look in your eyes and your dew damp hair I could tell that you’d been walking, alone in the night Knowing that nothing in life is free, And now you’ve come to me In the light of a newborn moon You lean in to kiss my neck Wanting to be wrapped up in love Or at least to be cautiously held 2. I’ve been wondering, how you can pace the night Searching for something ‘mongst the shadows Is exhaustion the only way that you can surrender? To give up the fight for the warm and the tender 3. Is this how it’s to be between you and me? Always a compromise, giving in reluctantly I’m not here to criticize you, or to even to complain Just another way that we’re both the some 4. I used to think love was just soft flesh and water Until I melted into my loneliness one night Fighting for every crumb and every moment I could steal And ignored everything inside and everything that I feel
