Call Down the Moon Songtext
von Man

I feel it drifting away
A little further each day
I try to turn back the tide
With an empty heart
I′m feeling battered and bruised
And not a little amused
But that's the way with a good man feeling bad

I tried to call down the moon
And not a minute too soon
But that was so long ago
When the world was young

So long, it′s all gone
So long, it's all gone


Black night is frozen in time
Some kind of weird design
Down at the scene of the crime
There's no fingerprints
I still remember the place
But I′ve lost sight of your face
The years have washed it away
With a careless hand

I try to call down the moon
And not a minute too soon
But that was so long ago
When the world was young

So long, it′s all gone
So long, it's all gone
All gone, all gone

The clock says quarter to ten
It′s started raining again
That's the way with a good man feeling bad
I′m feeling battered and bruised
And not a little amused
But that's the way with a good man feeling bad

I tried to call down the moon
And not a minute too soon
But that was so long ago
When the world was young


So long, it′s all gone
So long, it's all gone
All gone, all goneIf you're the Queen of Siam
I′ll take my chances alone
In this lousy world
I tried to call down the moon
And not a minute too soon
But that was so long ago
When the world was young
