Lyrics
I Have Been 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 street, the village green, the sleeping bakery
dreams with subway steam beneathe the balcony.
Let's flood the streets with chemistry all around this town.
I have been the moon tonight
revolving around a planet
I don't even know if I can ever return to.
I broke all these roses for you
and I dropped your ring down the kitchen sink
so I wrote up this note just for you,
it's an apology in invisible ink.
Let's flood the streets with chemistry
all around this town.
I have been the moon but I'd
trade the quiet sky for a hungry cry
that I'd have no reply to ever return to you.
I leave clues where nobody sees,
secret thoughts on secret streets.
Dead balloons and a pair of wings.
I have been an ocean tide
a sailor's goodbye whisper in the night
like a buoy, like a buoy floats.
