  • Dark mascara dripping down my face
    Only fools could ever feel this way
    Send my message into outer space
    Wonder if it's gonna float your way

    I can't compete with the stars in the sky
    I'm invisible, invisible
    I open the window to clear up my mind
    But it's difficult, so difficult

    Houston, I know there's a problem here
    Must be a hole in the atmosphere
    Baby, I wanna be closer to love

    Patience, darling, wait for the night
    Darkness comes and love comes alive
    I've been right here dreaming of you
    Waiting for my man on the moon
    Moon

    Last night I was in your arms so strong
    One small step and, baby, you were gone
    Now there's meaning in the saddest songs
    All I do is cry and sing along

    Drinking alone in my party dress
    Would you come back if I looked my best?
    Put on a smile and I said to myself

    Patience, darling, wait for the night
    Darkness comes and love comes alive
    I've been right here dreaming of you
    Waiting for my man on the moon
    Moon
    Moon
    Moon

    I can't compete with the stars in the sky
    I'm invisible, invisible
    I open the window to clear up my mind
    But it's difficult (why is it so difficult?), so difficult
    Chateau Marriott
    Il m'amène au lieu du chevalier cet hivers
    Cinq, quatre, trois, deux, un

    Patience, darling, wait for the night
    Darkness comes and love comes alive
    I've been right here dreaming of you
    Waiting for my man on the moon
    Moon
    Moon
