Underneath the Moon Songtext
von Ike Reilly

Come on baby, let′s stay together
I'm gonna change, I swear that I just might
Everyone says that you could′ve done better
But you were oh so young and I was there at night

Underneath the moon, darlin'
Hidin' in the shadows cast by the trees
I snuck into your room, darlin′
Just to watch you sleep underneath those moonbeams

Leavin′ me, girl, ain't gonna be easy
I′d better be dead or locked in the cell that I'm in
Whatever you do, always remember
That I wrote my name down where no other man had been

Underneath the moon, darlin′
Hidin' in the shadows cast by the trees
I snuck into your room, darlin′
Just to watch you sleep underneath those moonbeams


Well now weeds grow where you say I slept
With all your friends and half of your enemies
And moss grows over my eyelids
So I can't watch you take your dress off in front of me
And I've been beat down plenty
But I only break when you use that flesh to make fun of me
Oh yeah

Underneath the moon, darlin′
Hidin′ in the shadows cast by the trees
I snuck into your room, darlin'
Just to sleep with you underneath those moonbeams
Underneath those moonbeams

You know there comes a time, they say
When you gotta stop looking back over your shoulder
And you gotta look forward straight away
I′ve been leaning on memories a long time
But right now the past is my only friend
And I can't let it fade away

(Whoa oh oh oh) Oh yeah
(Whoa oh oh oh) Oh yeah
(Whoa oh oh oh) Gonna fade away
(Whoa oh oh oh) Oh yeah
(Whoa oh oh oh)


Underneath the moon, darlin′
Hidin' in the shadows cast by the trees
I snuck into your room, darlin′
Just to watch you sleep underneath those moonbeams

Good night, good luck
And get the fuck outta here
