The Moon Song - Karen O

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxahbnUCZxY

In light of this near full moon that shines so brightly tonight... In lieu of another late night at Veritas Wine & Bistro, here's a song I walked home to. In the words of Pablo Neruda, "Puedo escribir los versos más tristes esta noche. Yo la quise, y a veces ella también me quiso."

Here's a song I can sing and play over and over again with painful strokes brushed against the strings of my ukulele. Waiting for a duet, yet silence graces me with her presence once again. I play to myself and to her. The moon. To the modern day romantic, to the love we share under the same moon. I hope your thinking of me too.

Letras/Lyrics:

I'm lying on the moon
My dear, I'll be there soon
It's a quiet and starry place
Time's we're swallowed up
In space we're here a million miles away

There's things I wish I knew
There's no thing I'd keep from you
It's a dark and shiny place
But with you my dear
I'm safe and we're a million miles away

We’re lying on the moon
It’s a perfect afternoon
Your shadow follows me all day
Making sure that I'm
Okay and we’re a million miles away
A million miles away
A million miles away
