Countermoon |
On a night like this |
You look up at your lover |
It’s like you’re in some old cartoon |
Then you detect |
The scent of faded roses |
Up in the sky |
There’s that cruel countermoon |
Could that be murder you see in her eyes |
You try a long and desperate kiss |
You can’t escape it |
That beam is sure to find you |
Chorus: |
On a night like this |
The story is told |
How the women get restless |
And the men grow cold |
Gotham shudders |
There’s a chill in the air |
There’s a countermoon |
Lovers all beware |
Hand in hand |
You walk along the river |
You stop to clutch and caress |
A countermoonbeam |
Comes sweeping off the water |
She says «You're not my Jackie. |
My Jackie was the best.» |
Spitewaves are threatening |
The seaside hotels |
It’s nasty weather for July |
Last night you loved her |
Tonight you wonder why |
Chorus |
At every pay phone |
There’s somebody cryin' |
All the streets are slick with tears |
When you see that blue ray |
There’s a heartquake on the way |
Chorus |
