Turn Out The Moon
Walker Brothers · Other Songs - Walker Brothers
And your pride is a burden you bear
A beginning with no ending
Time is dying, but nobody cares
Nobody dares
Turn out the moon and the stars in the sky
Cause it is ended too soon
I'm through living a lie, without you
Happy people in black steeples
Make me need you a little bit more
Starless mornings find me older
Waiting for you to walk through that door
Just like before
Turn out the moon and the stars in the sky
Cause it is ended too soon
I'm through living a lie, without you
The torch is dying, I've carried it for too long, baby
I'll tear you from me, anyway I have too, baby
Turn out the moon and the stars in the sky
Cause it is ended too soon
I'm through living a lie, without you
(Turn out the moon, and the stars in the sky)
Gotta turn out the moon
(Turn out the moon, and the stars in the sky)
I tell ya baby, it ended
It ended way too soon
