about

Grumpy reflections of a failed interplanetary romantic. Trigger Warning: he is a bit of a bell end

lyrics

Many moons out here, seventh from the sun-
You can be sure my dear, I picked the coldest one!
And it's easy, too easy to sneer, watching the planets run-
They lost the plot, and time forgot, each sad career
Dark and lonely as a nun's;
I save your messages
And I send you none
Out here on Oberon!

Won't you tell my love, won't you speak it straight,
Say I'm not too proud to communicate-
I've been watching the morning star,
It doesn't seem so very far!
Now the world is wild, it's all a mess,
All my nights are long, days are shorter than your dress,
I'll be full of spite, and I won't know why,
Then I'm only love
But too tired to try.
Well, the music's stopped,
But the dance goes on
Out here on Oberon.

M8: Kids living the dream-
Playing at kings and queens;
I'm hearing you clear as a bell
Ringing through heaven and hell.

All the candles I hold in the dark
Have burned down to the quick;
Sorry shadows turn their heads and bark
I write strange words, I chase the moon, I'm sick-
Must be a lunatic!
Well, I'd follow your mood til the will grew thin,
And I've felt the bloom of all the flowers of sin
Pride and lust, and the spirit rusts,
And I wonder how
Will we let each other in?
Oh, and your eyes are like the sun!
Been a while since they've shone
Out here on Oberon.
