"Moon Is Up" lyrics

Moon Is Up

Moon is up
The sun is down
You can't have it
Both ways round
Ooh, babe
Won't you listen to me?
We are worlds apart, you see

Where are you now?
Crying out loud
Where did you go
When I needed you?

The sun sinks
Behind the clouds
And hides his tears
Without a sound
The moon looks on
Reflectively
So spare a thought
For you and me

Where are you now?
Dark are the clouds
Where did you go
When I needed you?

The moon is up
The sky is black
I'll sail away
And won't come back
The sun goes down
The stars will rise
And dance across
The darkened skies

The sun goes down
The moon comes up

The moon is up
The sun goes down
And you can't have it
Both ways round
So come on, baby
And listen to me
Cause we are worlds apart, you see

The sun goes down
The moon comes up
The sun goes down
