Lyrics

The moon is high It's not the only one I'm alone and I'm traveling So shine a light on me Down through my balcony You'll send me spinning Or you'll find me howling I'm under your window My shades are drawn tight He's up there with you He's been up here all night Do you favor a man when he breaks down and begs Or a boy with his tail dragging between his legs I feel vicious inside and the moon is high Now the sky's full of rain And I'm starting to weigh And I want to tear a strip from the firmament I dream your near Whispering endearments If I could take that full moon and make it more permanent I'm close to your window Are you tired of it now Is your light in the gutter And all you've allowed Do you favor a man when he breaks down and begs Or a boy with his tail dragging wherever you leave Now I'm in full cry And the moon is high Now I'm in full cry And I want to tear the strip from your firmament Howling for your love I'm howling for your love I'm howling for your love
