Lyrics
Stragglers 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.
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
You can find her scratching around in the dark
Just another candle chasing a spark
You can find her screaming along with a ghost
Reminds you she's the one you needed the most
And then you're out there on your own again
No-one believes you any lie
I still see all the old girls now and then
Catching the moonlight as they cry
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
The wrong way round's the right way up when she calls
You can laugh, but it won't mean nothing at all
Yes, you can find her scratching away in her room
Stumblin' round by the light of the Straggler's Moon
And then you're out there digging holes again
Six million people can't be wrong
Some day you'll buy the perfect soul and then
You can get back where you belong
And then you're out there on your own again
No-one believes you any lie
I still see all the old girls now and then
Catching the moonlight when they cry
