Lyrics
I wish I was the moon
I desire to be the moon
I wish I was the moon
Expressing the same desire as line 1
Up in the sky just for one night
Desire to be in the sky for a single night
I wish I was the moon
Reiteration of the desire to be the moon
World as self, world as lover
Viewing the world as oneself and as a lover
What collapses, what comes after
Contemplation on what collapses and what follows
Sorrows in bloom, but so are the trees too
Sorrows and trees blooming, reflecting on both positive and negative aspects
Right now it's like right now
Present moment described as it is
Tomorrow it will change somehow
Acknowledgment that the present will change in the future
Into our depths out of the darkness
Moving into the depths and out of darkness
Tomorrow it will change
Acknowledgment of the inevitable change in the future
I wish I wish I was the morning star
Expressing a wish to be the morning star
Wish I was a light after the dark
Desire to be a guiding light after darkness
Faced with my shadow nowhere to go
Facing one's shadow with nowhere to escape
I wish I was a star
Expressing a wish to be a star
Wish I was the moon
Reiteration of the desire to be the moon
The moon the moon the moon
Repetition emphasizing the moon
Wish I was the moon, but
Desire to be the moon but with an unspecified condition or hesitation
Right now it's like right now
Present moment described again
In the deeps, out the dark, like a star
Moving into the depths and out of darkness, likening to a star
A morning star
Specifically referring to being a morning star
Right now it's like right now
Present moment reiterated
Tomorrow it will change somehow
Acknowledgment that the present will change in the future
Into our depths out of the darkness
Moving into the depths and out of darkness
Tomorrow it will change
Acknowledgment of the inevitable change in the future
Right now it's like right now
Present moment reiterated
Tomorrow it will change somehow
Acknowledgment that the present will change in the future
Into our depths out of the darkness
Moving into the depths and out of darkness
I wish I was the moon
Reiteration of the desire to be the moon
The moon
Final emphasis on the moon
