Grapefruit Moon |
| Grapefruit moon, one star shining |
| Shining down on me |
| Heard that tune, and now I’m pining |
| Honey, can’t you see? |
| Cause every time I hear that melody |
| Something breaks inside |
| And the grapefruit moon, one star shining |
| Can’t turn back the tide |
| Never had no destinations |
| Could not get across |
| You became my inspiration |
| Oh, but what a cost |
| And every time I hear that melody |
| Something breaks inside |
| And the grapefruit moon, one star shining |
| Is more than I can hide |
| Now I’m smoking cigarettes |
| And I strive for purity |
| And I slip just like the stars |
| Into obscurity |
| And every time I hear that melody |
| Puts me up a tree |
| And the grapefruit moon, one star shining |
| Is all that I can see |
