Moonlighter

It's 3 A.M. in my hotel room

And the neighbors are banging on the wall

The television must have been so loud

But I managed to sleep through it all

It's raining like hell here in Belfast, and I miss my dog

But I don't have the answers I want so I might have to fall

I missed the birthdays and weddings and friends having kids

I've seen the worst days and, boy, I could make you a list

I read in Greenville that the queen of England is dead

Most things I hear I believe, but they're just secondhand

I'm the outsider, I'm looking in

I'm the moonlighter, I need a friend

I'm the coast-liner right till the end

And like rainfall in Phoenix, believe me, you'll see me again

I met a woman in Paris who taught me to dance

We had some coffee and we shared the sweetest romance

I had the best of intentions when this thing began

Well, let's hope she forgets me, and I'll do the same when I land

I'm the outsider, I'm looking in

I'm the moonlighter, I need a friend

I'm the coast-liner right till the end

And like rainfall in Phoenix, believe me, you'll see me

I'll be here soon, yes

Yes, you'll see me again

I'm the moonlighter

I'm the moonlighter

I'm the moonlighter
