	Story Behind the Song "Elvis And The Moon" underlines the danger of being a dreamer at the expense of anything genuine in your life, only to realise it all too late and repent for a small eternity. The song is a wistful ballad to commemorate the death of something quite beautiful which has been lost forever, when the "heroine" of this story has no-one to blame but herself......(not that I'm bitter or anything.....heehee!) Lyrics Elvis And The Moon I am lacerated by a certain sadness when you're happy now In ways you couldn't know And I'm lobotomised to think of you alight for someone else Don't tell me that its so And I think of times when you were damaged absent-mindedly By some neurotic psychopath who looked a lot like me And Im afflicted by a fountain full of effervescent feelings with no use Because I've left it far too long, from this day on, believe me Chorus No more Elvis and the moon I will only write for you The songs you're playing in your room Can I reach you through them? In my paroxetine dreams I feel too late what you inspired in me And I'm sorry Do you still smile in spite of me? I used to pride myself on being far too gone to even care Now every heartbeat rings in sympathy They drum the soundtrack to a dream where I'm restored to you once more This time with fireworks and empathy And now through every cause and consequence it's only you I love With sweet and savage tenderness that you know nothing of So take the truth and run before the proud and damaged daytime me saves face As if you've long since been erased, it's not the case, believe me Chorus No more Elvis and the moon I will only write for you The radio plays in your room Can I reach you through them? I made you pay for where I'd been And it's no wonder you grew tired of me And I'm sorry Do you still smile in spite of me? And now I'd hardly care of how impractical we were Now you're irretrievable, exclusively for her Forever sticking in my throat the words I never ever had the balls to say A thousand track marks bleed inside, in times when pride deceived me Chorus No more Elvis and the moon I will only write for you The songs you're playing in your room Can I reach you through them? In my paroxetine dreams I feel too late what you inspired in me And I'm sorry Do you still smile in spite of me? Beth Woods © 2002
