Moon Ahead

There was a moment I was so young

Running back like I couldn't stop

I was right where my mother was

Kinda drunk and making up for something

And for a moment I got caught

Better than that, I couldn't shut up

Fighting all the ways I'm like my father

Every time you try to make it harder

I was young, it's how it was and how it ended

And I could tell just how it felt by how you said it

With the moon ahead and the stars above me

With the moon ahead and the stars above me

And I was watching a shadow grow

On the bedside before you woke up

I could see how you thought I was

Acting dumb and covering for someone

I was young, it's how it was and how it ended

Gave it up but not enough to understand it

With the moon ahead and the stars above me

With the moon ahead and the stars above me

With the moon ahead and the stars

I wanna know something

I wanna be where you are

With the moon ahead, I should stop

I wanna know something

I wanna be where you are

I was young, it's how it was and how it ended

And I could tell just how I felt by how you said it

Oh, I could touch what we had and what had happened

There it was, I was done, you wouldn't let up

With the moon ahead and the stars above me

With the moon ahead and the stars above me

With the moon ahead and the stars

I wanna know something

I wanna be where you are
