Lonely Moon
Was a child and a newcomer to the ways of the world
Eyes ablaze with the light of high noon
Just to love and be loved was all he ever wanted
By the light of the lonely moon
They taught him to capture and tame wild pathos
Sold him distractions and made every day seem the same
Caught the Holy Ghost lurking in his cellar and threw him out
Leaving just a lonely name
Soon they took (soon they took)
Everything that he lived for (everything)
So he asked them to please take his life too
They denied him existence, but they let him
Let him live in a lonely room
Lonely room
His path is lit only by the light of falling stars
The embers fall to scorch and cut his face
He wants to believe in his unbelief
In a lonely place
But they buried his conscience
Near the grave of God
Sealed his soul up in a tomb of tears
They scattered his ashes East of Eden someplace
On a lonely breeze
Someday, somebody come
Someday, somebody come
Someday, somebody come
Someday, somebody come
Someday, somebody come
Was a child and a newcomer to the ways of the world
Eyes ablaze with the light of the high noon
Just to love and be loved was all he ever wanted
Lonely moon
By the light of the lonely moon
Lonely moon
Lonely moon
Lonely moon, lonely moon, lonely moon
Eyes ablaze with the light of high noon
Just to love and be loved was all he ever wanted
By the light of the lonely moon
They taught him to capture and tame wild pathos
Sold him distractions and made every day seem the same
Caught the Holy Ghost lurking in his cellar and threw him out
Leaving just a lonely name
Soon they took (soon they took)
Everything that he lived for (everything)
So he asked them to please take his life too
They denied him existence, but they let him
Let him live in a lonely room
Lonely room
His path is lit only by the light of falling stars
The embers fall to scorch and cut his face
He wants to believe in his unbelief
In a lonely place
But they buried his conscience
Near the grave of God
Sealed his soul up in a tomb of tears
They scattered his ashes East of Eden someplace
On a lonely breeze
Someday, somebody come
Someday, somebody come
Someday, somebody come
Someday, somebody come
Someday, somebody come
Was a child and a newcomer to the ways of the world
Eyes ablaze with the light of the high noon
Just to love and be loved was all he ever wanted
Lonely moon
By the light of the lonely moon
Lonely moon
Lonely moon
Lonely moon, lonely moon, lonely moon
