  • Sister moon will be my guide
    In your blue blue shadows I would hide
    All good people asleep tonight
    I'm all by myself in your silver light
    I would gaze at your face the whole night through
    I'd go out of my mind but for you
    I'd go out of my mind but for you

    Lying in a mother's arms
    The primal root of a woman's charms
    I'm a stranger to the sun
    My eyes are too weak
    How cold is a heart
    When it's warmth that he seeks?
    You watch every night, you don't care what I do
    I'd go out of my mind, but for you
    I'd go out of my mind, but for you

    My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun
    My hunger for her explains everything I've done
    To howl at the moon the whole night through
    And they really don't care if I do
    I'd go out of my mind for you
