By the Light of the Moon
Motorcycle guns its engine in the street below
oh this open window's an invitation to the great unknown
I used to talk to you
you used to talk to me
now we're like nothing and nobody
I was just recording the distance of the great unknown
by the light of the moon
by the light of the moon
Footsteps like guns in the distance and they're moving close
I'm a crouching woman soldier
there's a war you know
I used to hear you and you used to talk to me
now you just hit like a storm at sea
I was just recounting the story for the great unknown
by the light of the moon
by the light of the moon
I used to fight them when they used to talk about you
I was struck dumb
I can't defend you now
Motorcycle great guns and they tear off down the street below
oh this closed window's an indication of the world I've known
I used to hold you I know that will haunt me
but I am not nothing or nobody
I was just preparing a sister for the great unknown
by the light of the moon
by the light of the moon
