See her how she flies Golden sails across the skies Close enough to touch But careful if you try Though she looks as warm as gold The moon's a harsh mistress The moon can be so cold Once the sun did shine And Lord it felt so fine The moon a phantom rose Through the mountains and the pines And then the darkness fell The moon's a harsh mistress It's hard to love her well I fell out of his eyes I fell out of his heart I fell down on my face I tripped and I missed my stars And I fell and fell alone The moon's a harsh mistress The sky is made of stone The moon's a harsh mistress She's hard to call your own
