Moonwalking
Cold feet, but not like the cold
that I used to know.
The back beat sounds as if
I’m hearing it over the phone.
One day the moon just changed,
I didn’t know
until I watched the stars alone.
I’d have never known.
And I forgot, not to watch
for the sun to rise.
And there was the moon
posed alongside in the same sky.
Moonwalking, the stars have eyes,
open even when the sun is high.
Moon bathing, in space not time,
I might need you when I’m out of light.
It’s light outside, he’s only needed
when the sun is gone.
Acosmic white, let him leave,
let him right his wrongs.
Moonwalking, the stars have eyes,
open even when the sun is high.
Moon bathing, in space not time,
I might need you when I’m out of light.
Closer now, white, forthright,
you’re no fire, but you’re warm and bright.
Aurora night, a moon-like light,
till the shine drowns t
