I'm easily inspired either by personal experiences, things said in conversation, being given a challenge, or being moved or amused by something. Many genres.

Lyrics
THE MAN IN THE MOON
I saw a shooting star tonight,
Spoke with the man in the moon,
He told me things would be OK,
Ill find a soul-mate soon
Does he have the answers,
When we ask him why,
Does he know the way we try
To hide things inside
I look to the old man,
Wise beyond his years
Hes witnessed countless hopes and fears,
And seen a sea of tears.
A million stars are out tonight,
A million hearts won,
I ask when my time will come
To win just one.
Dreams are schemes to find someone,
Stars are there to guide,
Destiny will seal my fate,
My heart is open wide.
I look to the old man,
Wise beyond his years
Hes witnessed countless hopes and fears,
And seen a sea of tears.
A million stars are out tonight,
A million hearts won,
I ask when my time will come
To win just one.
CHORUS
Man in the moon I need you,
Help me find my way,
Its so lonely
As the night turns into day,
As the night turns into day.
I saw the old man dressed in clouds,
But still there shining bright,
A sounding board for wishful hearts,
On a starry night.
We look to the old man,
Wise beyond his years
Hes witnessed countless hopes and fears,
And seen a sea of tears.
A million stars are out tonight,
A million hearts won,
I ask when my time will come
To win just one.
I saw a shooting star tonight,
Spoke with the man in the moon,

ahhhh...I sure remember this one, one of my most favourite songs, and as I am listening to it again, it's plain to see why, it's totally top shelf, starting from the lyrics and right up to the music and vocals. A 5 star song all the way, congrats to both of you.
