Your Name On The Moon | Lyrics

Your Name On The Moon
now that you’re gone
i can’t deny that my feelings have grown
and try as i might they won’t leave me alone
those memories of you
even the ink from my biro is blue
but when you were near
all my bad habits simply disappeared
and i took for granted the things i now fear
and i’ve been so confused
we broke the heart of the matter in two
and somebody wrote your name on the moon
the stars in the sky are falling for you
there’s no escaping a memory that’s true
‘cause somebody wrote your name on the moon
and it’s not so much fun
sleeping alone and cooking for one
staying at home so raw and so numb
and love it came to me free
but since you’ve been gone it’s extracted it’s fee
and i feel such a mess and i’ve tried to get clean
but the shower rose keeps pouring it’s heart out to me
and i confess since you left i’ve been able to sleep
only ‘cause the bed that we shared is not talking to me
and somebody wrote your name on the moon
and like the stars in the sky i’ve fallen for you
there’s no escaping a memory that’s true
not now that somebody wrote your name on the moon

Winter Song | Lyrics

Winter Song
the sky has darkened
and the wind in the trees
laments the falling of the leaves
and high above me
like a pill like a seed
rolls the rabid eye of winter’s dream
i want you to hurt me
i want to know how it feels
to share a love that never heals
where you could nurse me
frail upon open seas
or you could dash my every dream
the moon abandoned
in its nest of pallid clouds
awaits the din of spring’s return
this star-crossed lover
by the sun ever spurned
and yet in who’s heart still longs to burn

The Light Of The Moon | Lyrics

The Light Of The Moon
well thank you for the lift i said
i’ll see you around
but i think that i can make
my own way now
to walk away will do me good
the air will clear my head
sometimes i need to sleep
in my own bed
with the light of the moon
to guide my way
from the deep of night
to the light of day
i’m caught between the stars
and the cold cold ground
i’m sticking to the tarmac
while the world turns around
i’m caught between complacency
and longing to be free
i’m frozen from the fear of things
that i cannot see
but the light of the moon
will guide my way
from the deep of night
to the light of day

Summer Dresses | Lyrics

Summer Dresses
the sun is up the sky is blue
there’s a chill wind reminds me of you
but i’ll be alright as long as there’ll be
summer dresses in front of me
summer dresses first day of spring
wind caresses white winter skin
jasmine blossoms and birds sing
and girls are wearing
summer dresses on the first day of spring
those winter days are dark and long
but seasons change and life goes on
up the road and ‘round the bend
your broken heart is on the mend
summer dresses where have you been
i thought i’d never see you again
but just like an old fair weather friend
here you come again
summer dresses on the first day of spring
all the old men shuffling in the street
they can barely stand on their two feet
but as long as they have two eyes to see
they’ll be falling in love just like me
with summer dresses so soft and sweet
summer dresses what joy they bring
don’t mind me while i sit and stare
at pretty girls in the summer dresses they wear
‘cause happiness is summer dresses
on the first day of spring
