Oh, Moon

Skirmish: Moon (@44nifty)Liner Notes
This was a fun idea for a skirmish. I thought of aspects of the Moon, which gave me the idea of the Moon as a person who is beautiful but troubled. Thanks for listening!
Lyrics
Sometimes you’re blue Other times you’re new You’re always right there above Coming after you What’s an astronaut to do? The Moon is his only true love
Oh, Moon What to do When all the boys want to plant their flag No gravity to hold one down What a drag What a drag
You’re drifting further away each year Turn your face Turn your face and hide your tears
The marks on your face Show us the places Where all of them guys did you wrong You’re glowing so bright You light up the night But darkness is your favorite song
Oh, Moon What to do When all the boys want to plant their flag No gravity to hold one down What a drag What a drag
You’re drifting so slowly away from my world I’ll hold onto you I'll give you my word

"Oh what a drag", what a great refrain. "darkness is your favourite" also resonates so much. I've been watching moon past couple of nights and this feels like we're on a same plane. Great tune bud!
Thanks!
This is a fun twist on the old moon love song. Is it simpler this way, or more copmlicated? Who can say?
