Story Behind the Song
The song explores the emotions and extremes of lonliness.
Lyrics
I gaze out at the gleaming face of lunar light above,
The one that cares for Satan's strays and ask if I could love.
Yellow moon, red moon, he makes one a good child.
Orange moon, black moon, he drives another wild.
No man was around at the time of his ancient birth and, while man has touched the moon in space
That light rules man on earth.
At you, and at my love for you, the smiling crescent stares,
And at the mad dog, howling wolf, who also has nightmares.
Half moon, full moon, make love in a howling wind.
Old moon, new moon, don't judge like you've never sinned.
And you may watch the dying with the fear of a man before he's old.
And you will catch your death my dear, but not of cold.
Calm hot nights, cold winds the sea warms.
Howling rains and holy wars, you can't fight magnetic storms.
Firework displays and fistfightss on nights of cold. Who knows, will our love ever be right in the blizzard as she blows?
Midnight, no moon, you can fly to my side.
Cloudy sky, make it soon, my heart is open wide.
Or else the moon has lied.
