The Killing 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.
Under blue Moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you
Or cancel it though
I know it must be the
Killing time
Unwillingly mine
Fate up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
In starlit nights I saw you
So cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world
Your sky all hung with jewels
The killing Moon
Will come too soon
Fate up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
