Moon Like a Pearl
Pia Fraus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and I'm waiting
I'm always waiting
All these good things
The sky is full of stars
Heavenly starlight
Heavenly moon bright
Silently breathing
the moon like a pearl
You're quiet and lonely
the moon like a pearl
And I'm waiting
I'm waiting
Waiting, I'm waiting.
I think I'm sleeping,
The sky is full of stars
Heavenly starlight
It's just a beautiful moon bright
The lyrics of "Moon Like a Pearl" by Pia Fraus tells a story of waiting and contemplation. The first few lines establish a dark and quiet setting, with the singer waiting for something to happen. The repetition of the line "I'm always waiting" emphasizes the feeling of anticipation and the desire for something to change. The mention of good things suggests that the singer is hoping for something positive to come out of the waiting.
The second stanza brings up the theme of loneliness, with the singer describing themselves as "quiet and lonely" and comparing themselves to the moon, which is traditionally associated with feelings of loneliness and melancholy. The line "the moon like a pearl" creates an image of something precious and beautiful but also fragile and isolated. The use of the present continuous tense ("I think I'm sleeping" and "I'm waiting") suggests that the waiting and loneliness are ongoing and that there is a sense of inertia or stagnation in the singer's life.
Overall, the song seems to be a meditation on the challenges of waiting and the ways in which waiting can create feelings of loneliness and isolation. The use of celestial imagery, such as stars and the moon, adds a sense of wonder and beauty to the song while also emphasizing the vastness and emptiness of the waiting.

Sweet and nice like it should
Kiss me once more
Believe it can’t be so wrong
Please be like before
Throw away all
Like you do it
Say I hate you
And you leave me
Sad and hopelessly bad
Oh no! I don’t care
Glad that you are here
Now all seems so clear
