PALE MOONLIGHT

Verse 1

In the pale moonlight
In the dark, in the dead of night
Second hand from a star it shines
The fire’s on

Verse 2

Cold touch of an ancient rhyme
There's a god that I left behind
Second-hand everywhere I find
The fire’s gone

Pre-Chours 1

They told me keep to your course
In chasin' after desire
I'm not findin' a source
Like some sun-gold fire

Chorus 1

But maybe I’ve been sold a lie
I can’t find a light
Tell me how many go down and never return
To the sunlit lands, heaven please
Have I lost 'em for good

Verse 3

Had a dream where I went to find
Far away, over seas and time
The lost shores of a distant island, for so long

Verse 4

Woke up to the pale moonlight
Cold touch of an ancient rhyme
Second-hand everywhere, I'll find it
The first one
Pre-Chorus 2

They told me keep to your course
In chasin' after desire
I'm not findin' a source
Like some sun-gold fire

Chorus 2

But maybe I’ve been sold a lie
I can’t find a light
Tell me how many go down and never return
To the sunlit lands, heaven please

Chorus 3

But maybe I’ve been sold a lie
I can’t find a light
Tell me how many go down and never return
To the sunlit lands, heaven please
Have I lost 'em for good
