Story behind the song
One of my favorite places is Gulf Shores AL. On a visit a few years back my twin sons who were around 5 at the time went for a walk on the beach.It was a great sunsey with a cresent moon coming through the sky.I went on to explain how my Father always said it was Gods fingernail.And to this day..(they're 9yrs old now) they still call it a fingernail moon.All that and the bittersweetness of watching them grow.
Lyrics
Late in the evening at sunset Way up in an orange, blue sky Wide eyed and watching the wonder The innocent always ask why… Does it come out in the night time And where does it go in the day Wanting to know all the answers Of the crescent shape so far away CHORUS And I could spend all of my life Just watching the sky’s every night Holding your hand And wishing on fingernail moons BRIDGE Little man where are you going Everything’s new to you now Little man what are you showing You’re showing the world you know how So tell everyone you’re a big boy And take what you can while it’s free With so much to do in a lifetime And anything you’d like to be CHORUS - 2 - OUT
