The night before the moon died
you realized
the flowers that you picked
and kept locked away
were never to be seen
by naked lovers' eyes
the night before the moon died
you realized
you had a chance to make it right
but you never did
take your car right out of gear
send it over the sea
touch your fingers to the water
put your hands to your face
the night before the moon died
you realized
you had your chance
to make it right
you had your chance
to change your mind
you had your chance
to save your life
but you never did
