LYRICS
See her how she flies
[00:08.438]
Golden sails across the sky
[00:13.768]
Close enough to touch
[00:20.412]
But careful if you try
[00:25.461]
Though she looks as warm as gold
[00:30.764]
The moon's a harsh mistress
[00:36.082]
The moon can be so cold
[00:40.858]
Once the sun did shine
[00:48.296]
Lord, it felt so fine
[00:52.542]
The moon a phantom rose
[00:59.448]
Through the mountains and the pines
[01:05.824]
And then the darkness fell
[01:11.439]
And the moon's a harsh mistress
[01:15.693]
It's hard to love her well
[01:22.867]
I fell out of its eyes
[02:12.034]
I fell out of its heart
[02:16.030]
I fell down on my face
[02:23.729]
I tripped and I missed my stars
[02:29.052]
I fell and I fell alone,
[02:35.418]
And the moon's a harsh mistress
[02:40.772]
And the sky is made of stone
[02:46.086]
The moon's a harsh mistress
[02:54.600]
She's hard to call your own
