The Moon Is Blue Lyrics

Song: The Moon Is Blue

Artist: Future Islands

Lyrics: Steven Young & Martyn Young

Composed: Steve Wright & Future Islands

 

Feel these hands that

Shape this world

Then try to understand

 

When the light shines down

And the time goes slowly

When my mind's in the dust

Scorched and dying

There's a pain in my hand

Inscribed to the sad and lonely

Now I feel so cold and alone

Thinking how long

 

Now if you had told me

She would come back

And if you had told me

The clock was gonna fall

And if you had shown me

Some affection

I would have believed you

 

Don't tell me the moon is blue (Now you've let me down)

'Cause tonight it's over (Now you've let me down)

Now the pain's in the dust (Now you've let me down)

And you can't find your blue moon

Now it's over

Oh, tonight it's over

 

The pain was a sharp one

That cut me both ways

And tore my world apart

I could have healed that wound so deep

But you, you wouldn't understand

 

Don't tell me the moon is blue (Now you've let me down)

'Cause tonight it's over (Now you've let me down)

Now the pain's in the dust (Now you've let me down)

And you can't find your blue moon (Now you've let me down)

Now it's over, oh

 

Tonight it's over, oh

Tonight it's over, oh

Tonight it's over, oh

Tonight it's over

Oh, oh, over

 

Tonight it's over
