The Moon's a Harsh Mistress

See her as she flies
Golden sails across the sky
Close enough to touch
But careful if you try
Though she looks warm as gold

The moon's a harsh mistress
The moon can be so cold

Once the sun did shine
And Lord, it felt so fine
The moon, a phantom rose
Through the mountains and the pines
And then the darkness fell

And the moon's a harsh mistress
It's hard to love her well
The moon's a harsh mistress
She's hard to call your own
