Song About The Moon

[Chorus 1] If you want to write a song about the moon [Verse 1] Walk along the craters of the afternoon When the shadows are deep And the light is alien And gravity leaps like a knife off the pavement [Chorus 1] [Verse 2] You want to write a spiritual tune Then nah nah nah Presto [Chorus 1] [Verse 3] Think about the moon before you start Because the heart will howl Like a dog in the moonlight And the heart can explode Like a pistol on a June night [Chorus 1] [Verse 4] And its ever-longing for a counterpart Write a song about the moon The laughing boy He laughed so hard He fell down from his place The laughing girl She laughed so hard The tears rolled down her face Hey Songwriter [Chorus 1] [Verse 5] A face Think about a photograph That you really can't remember But you can't erase Wash your hands in dreams and lightning Cut off your hair And whatever is frightening [Chorus 1][x2] [Verse 6] You want to write a spiritual tune THEN DO IT [Chorus 1]
