Intro: verse 1 See her how she flies Golden sails across the sky She’s Close enough to touch But careful if you try Though she looks as warm as gold The moon's a harsh mistress The moon can be so cold verse 2 Once the sun did shine Good Lord, it felt so fine The moon a phantom rose Through the mountains and the pines And then the darkness fell the moon's a harsh mistress It's hard to love her wel Bridge I fell out of her eyes I fell out of her heart I fell down on my face I tripped and missed my star verse 3 God, I fell and fell alone, the moon's a harsh mistress the sky is made of stone The moon's a harsh mistress She's hard to call your own.
