歌词
By the light of the moon, shadows spin tall tales,
And someone's eyes can make you think you're loved,
But when the sun rises again, and reveals the shades of color,
You discover it was all just a trick of the light.
By the light of the moon, the shadows dance together,
And someone can make you think they care,
But when you wake with the sun's harsh light,
And it banishes the night,
You discover it was all just a trick of the light.
And maybe if he had just called,
And maybe if he'd said one kind word,
And maybe if he'd let you know that you still mattered, at all,
And maybe if he'd said goodbye,
Or even see you 'round my friend,
Or if he'd said that he would always think of you fondly
Sometimes the moon has you believe
That a man's heart can love,
But it turns out every time that you mean nothing,
Cause when the sun shines its harsh light
And banishes the night, you discover that his love
Was just a trick of the light.
And maybe if he had just called
And maybe if he'd said one kind word,
And maybe if he'd let you know that you still mattered, at all,
And maybe if he'd said goodbye,
Or even see you 'round my friend,
Or if he'd let you know he'd always think of you fondly
By the light of the moon, words can be deceiving,
And someone's eyes can make you think you're loved,
But when the sun rises again and reveals the shades of color,
You discover it was all just a trick of the light.
