Girl on the Moon
Chasing Shadows: The Enigmatic Quest for Love on the Moon
Lyrics
It's night, again
Expressing the beginning of the night.
Time for my mind to go wandering
Anticipation of a mental journey.
Off on a journey, through space and time
Embarking on a journey through space and time.
In search of a face I can never find
Searching for a face that remains elusive.
So I close my eyes and look inside
Closing eyes to introspect.
I can't forget
Memory lingering on a significant night.
The night that I saw her we never met
Recalling a moment of unmet connection.
She felt so close to me as I reached for her hand
Feeling a close connection while reaching for someone.
She drifted away like the desert sand
Experiencing the person slipping away like sand.
It was her and she was gone
Confirmation of her departure.
I wish she'd come back tonight
Expressing a desire for her return tonight.
Like a star shining bright
Comparing her return to a bright shining star.
I don't know where she's from
Uncertainty about her origin.
She's like a girl on the moon
Comparing her to a girl on the moon.
A girl on the moon
Reiteration of her being like a girl on the moon.
She's like a girl on the moon
Repeating the comparison.
A girl on the moon
Emphasizing the resemblance to a girl on the moon.
Yeah it's night, once again
Noting the recurrence of night.
And that same old feeling is setting in
Experiencing a familiar feeling.
It all seems so familiar but I hope this time
Expressing hope for a different outcome.
That the girl on the moon will soon be mine
Desiring ownership of the girl on the moon.
All mine, tonight
Expressing a possessive desire for the night.
Am I asking too much
Questioning the reasonableness of the desire.
Should I leave my dream untouched
Contemplating whether to preserve the dream.
Should I even know where she's from
Questioning the necessity of knowing her origin.
My, girl on the moon
Affirmation of personal connection to the girl on the moon.
She's my girl on the moon
Reiteration of the personal bond with her.
