Someone Like The Moon

Pulp · His 'n' Hers [1994]

She likes to watch the moon

As it travels through the sky

Because she's heard it's romantic

Though she really can't see why



Someone should have helped her through the day

Someone like the moon

So she drinks a cup of coffee

And telephones a friend

And she asks if she can make it

So this night never ends

And someone should have helped her through the day

Someone like the moon



But the light comes and the day bleeds through the sky

And the sun makes it hard to get through

And the radio only plays love songs and she cries

Because she knows it's such a bad thing to do



In the evening it's gets better

And she thinks how it's not right

That someone so stupid

Can so easily screw up your life



Someone should have helped her through the day

Someone like the moon

But the light came and the day bled through the sky

And the sun, the sun made it hard to get through

And the radio only played love songs so she cried

Oh she knew, it's such a bad thing to do



Oh can't you see, can't you see

Someone should have told her you had gone

Oh someone like the moon

Can't you see, can't you see

Someone should have told her you had gone

Oh someone like the moon
