Orange Moon
Journey through Heartbreak: Keith Harkin's Orange Moon Tale
Lyrics
Driving into New York, underneath an orange moon.
Reflecting on driving into New York City beneath an orange moon.
My heart's still broken and it's all because of you.
Expressing a lingering emotional pain and heartbreak caused by someone.
Thought I'd given you up, it's now a year or two.
Recalling the decision to move on from the pain, which happened about a year or two ago.
Driving into New York City underneath an orange moon.
Reiteration of driving into New York City under an orange moon.
It's one more mile to Sparta, one more to Dover too.
Noting the proximity to Sparta and Dover, indicating the geographical location.
80-East to New York City, and you're getting closer too.
Driving on the 80-East towards New York City and feeling nearer to the person.
I knew that we had something, I didn't know it would never stay true.
Realization that there was a connection, but it wasn't enduring or genuine.
Heading East to New York City underneath an orange moon
Continuing the journey towards New York City beneath an orange moon.
Never knew how much I missed you, then again you never could.
Acknowledging not fully recognizing the depth of missing the person, who also couldn't understand.
Then again I broke your heart, I know I never should.
Owning up to causing heartbreak and regretting the actions taken.
This orange moon makes my heart grow fond of you,
Feeling sentimental due to the influence of the orange moon, reminiscing about the person.
Meet me one more time in town, I'm passin' through.
Expressing a desire to meet one more time while passing through town.
Wonder should I call her, would she even pick up?
Contemplating whether to contact the person, uncertain of their response.
Or send her a midnight message? I don't want to wake her up.
Considering sending a message but hesitant to disturb their sleep.
I just passed last exit, it's now or never time.
Realizing a critical decision point having passed, feeling the urgency of the moment.
Driving East to New York City, underneath an orange moon.
Continuing the journey towards New York City beneath the orange moon's glow.
Never knew how much I missed you, then again you never could.
Recognizing the depth of missed connection, similar to the previous sentiment.
Then again I broke your heart, I know I never should.
Reiterating regret for causing heartbreak and acknowledging the mistake.
This orange moon makes my heart grow fond of you,
Attributing sentimental feelings to the orange moon and longing to meet while passing through town.
Meet me one more time in town, I'm passin' through.
Repeating the desire to meet once more during the passage through town.
Meet me one more time in town, I'm passin' through.
Reiteration of the plea to meet while passing through town.
Never knew how much I missed you, then again you never could.
Re-emphasizing the lack of understanding of the depth of longing from both sides.
Then again I broke your heart, I know I never should.
Owning up to causing heartbreak again and regretting the mistake.
This orange moon makes my heart grow fond of you,
Connecting sentimental feelings to the influence of the orange moon, desiring a meeting.
Meet me one more time in town, I'm passin' through.
Expressing the wish for a final meeting while passing through town.
Meet me one more time in town, I'm passin' through,
Repetition of the plea for a final meeting while passing through town.
Oh, meet me one more time in town...underneath this orange moon.
Final plea for a meeting in town under the orange moon's ambiance.
