Little lady on the moon close your eyes

You can dream about the fire while resting in tonight

I will listen to the shadow lands and brace what's coming true

Love only knows why the fire is a fire and it burns from letting go
              C
Steady as she goes
           A#
And I never stare
                                           Dm
But she blinds me with her beauty, I never dare
               Gm
Dare to have a doubt
            F          Dm           Gm            C        F
'Cause I'd rather be blind, I realized, while the fire was out

The modern man will make it disappear oh ooh
           A#
And I will take your words of wisdom dear

Close your eyes
