Fell and fell alone
Though she looks as warm as gold
Fell out of her heart
The moon can be so cold
The moon's a harsh mistress
Then the darkness fell
Close enough to touch
The moon a phantom rose
Though with the mountains and the pine
Good lord, it felt so fine
It's hard to love her well
The moon's a harsh mistress
I tripped and missed my star
The moon's a harsh mistress
I fell out of her eyes
Fell down on my face
Once the sun did shine
The moon's a harsh mistress
But careful if you try
The sky is made of stone
