Venus Kissed the Moon - Christine Lavin

I don't even remeber if that is the title. But it's a pensive, pretty song,
and one of the first I ever figured out, so here it is.
Christine fingerpicks like a dream, mine is a gross estimation, and muddier
than I've transcribed here.
Intro: x2
Christine fingerpicks the entire song in her chords, so just go for it.
The words are a little off from memory.
The C and F pattern is four measures long,
evey other chord is only one measure
EXCEPT the Dm and G at the end of the bridge
The lines at the end are sung with two voices
Venus kissed the moon tonight way up in the sky
She's been chasing him for centuries too bad he's so shy___
He's waxing, He's waning,
You won't see Venus complaining
She'll steal a kiss whenever she can
Not 'til twenty-thirtyone(?) will this happen again
I see you in the taxi cab and touch your hands and face
I say "I feel like a satelite, way too long in space___"
You roll down the window
to gain a clearer view
You're looking up at the heavens
I'm looking up at you___
Twenty-thrityone you say
That's an eternity, so far away, not to me
Time and distance make no difference in these
Celestial affairs____
Won't you hold me close tonight
Your eyes are shining bright___
Like the luminescent streetlight lights those
lovers way up there
Venus kissed the moon tonight It's ok It was a leap year
Then she kept right on traveling centrifical force, my dear___
He's waxing, He's waning,
You won't see Venus complaining
She'll steal a kiss whenever she can
This will happen again, this will happen again
Venus kissed the moon
(Venus kissed the moon tongiht____)
This will happen again
Venus kissed the moon
(Venus kissed the moon tongiht____)
This will happen again
Venus kissed the moon
(Venus kissed the moon tongiht____)
This will happen again
