lyrics

Back when time was new, only madmen sought a view
of the moon
Now the path's gone gray, and wrought-iron shadows line the way
to the moon
It's been that way for a lifetime
winking slyly out from behind the gloom
Second time it's full, you will surely feel the pull
of the moon.
A dozen men touched down on the bright and barren ground
of the moon
It's been up there since September
shining a purple light around the room
but you'll rue the day you remember
going ape-wild, looking sideways
at eight shades of lunar blue
If she takes his hand, they can surely put a man
on the moon
but if you lose your way, promise me that you won't stay
on the moon
It's been that way forty lifetimes
shining silver tears across the gloom
you'll rue the day you remember
going ape-wild, looking sideways
at eight shades of lunar blue
you remember
it's just a painting
in eight shades of lunar blue.
