black moon
Ghost Town Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm feeling all alone lately
Tangled in these sheets
I'm craving
For you to come to me
You're the reason I breathe
I'm feeling all alone
I'm feeling all alone
The silence shakes the room
In the pale light of you
I want the night sky forever

I want you Black Moon
I want you Black Moon
I want you Black Moon
I want you Black Moon

You took control of my emotion
Like the moon rules the tide
Queen Moon, I don't deserve tonight
But I'm begging you right now
I'll do as you wish
Take it high or low
I surrender Don't wanna be alone
I'm yours, so do what you please

Don't wanna be alone
Don't wanna be alone
Silence shakes the room
In the pale light of you
I want your night sky forever

I want you Black Moon
I want you Black Moon
I want you Black Moon
I want you Black Moon

You always leave me when the sun comes out
I'm so low when you're not around
The broken me washes out to sea
My emotions are trapped in a bottle
S.O.S. I'm losing it
Without you in my life, I'm dead!
So bring me back when you seduce the night

I want you Black Moon
I want you Black Moon




I want you Black Moon
I want you Black Moon
