The Moon
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The moon is not only beautiful
It is so far away
The moon is not only ice cold
It is here to stay
When I lay me down
Will you still be around
When they put me six feet underground
Will the big bad beautiful you be around
Everyone says they know you
Better than you know who
Everyone says they own you
More than you do
When I lay me down
Will you still be around
When they put me six feet underground
Will the big bad beautiful you be around
'Cause the moon is not only beautiful
It is so far away
The moon is not only ice cold
It is here to stay
Everyone says they know you
better than you know who
Everyone says they own you
More than you do
