Harvest Moon

Oh temptress of the earth and sky Why must you rise so soon? The fields are full with wheat and grain So comes the harvest moon Come september ready or not Our crops no longer wait The harvest moon and autumn wind Will surely seal their fate Oh golden moon that shines so bright Give me light I pray I cannot see to glean my fields Turn darkness into day Oh harvest moon why can't you see? I do the best I can I plow my fields and plant my seeds Why can't you understand? Harvest moon oh harvest moon Just give me one more hour Help me see to cut my wheat And grind it into flour
