[bad word] moon, one star shining
Shining down on me
Heard that tune, and now I'm pining
Honey, can't you see?

'Cause every time I hear that melody
Well, something breaks inside
And the [bad word] moon, one star shining
Can't turn back the tide

Never had no destination
Could not get across
You became my inspiration
Oh but what a cost

'Cause every time I hear that melody
Well, something breaks inside
And the [bad word] moon, one star shining
Is more than I can hide

Now I'm smoking cigarettes
And I strive for purity
And I slip just like the stars
Into obscurity

'Cause every time I hear that melody
Puts me up a tree
And the [bad word] moon, one star shining
Is all that I can see
