Lyrics
See her, how she flies
Describing the moon's movement in the sky.
Golden sails across the sky
Imagery of the moon with golden sails, portraying beauty.
She's close enough to touch
Suggesting the moon is within reach, emphasizing proximity.
But careful if you try
Cautioning against attempting to physically touch or possess the moon.
Though she looks as warm as gold
Despite appearances, cautioning that the moon is cold.
The moon's a harsh mistress
Labeling the moon as a challenging and unforgiving presence.
The moon can be so cold
Highlighting the moon's duality, being both warm-looking and cold in reality.
Once the sun did shine
Recalling a time when everything felt positive and bright under the sun.
Oh, Lord, it felt so fine
Expressing the joy and warmth experienced in the past.
The moon, a phantom, rose
Describing the moon as a mysterious and elusive entity.
Through the mountains and the ????
Referencing the moon rising over geographical features, suggesting a journey.
And then the darkness fell
Marking the transition to darkness, symbolizing challenges or hardships.
The moon's a harsh mistress
Reiterating the moon's harsh nature and difficult to understand character.
It's hard to love her way (?)
Expressing the difficulty of loving the moon, perhaps due to its challenges.
I fell out of her eyes
Symbolizing a departure from the moon's gaze or influence.
I fell out of her heart
Indicating a separation from the emotional connection to the moon.
I fell down on my face
Describing a fall or failure, possibly in the context of a relationship.
I tripped and missed my ????
Alluding to a missed opportunity or misunderstanding.
And I fell and fell alone
Expressing a sense of loneliness and descent.
The moon's a harsh mistress
Reiterating the challenging nature of the moon.
The sky is made of stone
Depicting the sky as unyielding and unchanging.
The moon's a harsh mistress
Emphasizing the difficulty of claiming a connection to the moon.
She's hard to call your own
Describing the moon as elusive and not easily possessed.
