See these eyes so green I can stare for a thousand years Well it's been so long It's been so long Just be still with me I've been putting out fire (it's been so long, so long, so long) Colder than the moon And I've been putting out the fire with gasoline

The moon's a harsh mistress And the moon's a harsh mistress See her how she flies Golden sails across the sky Close enough to touch But careful if you try Though she looks as warm as gold The moon can be so cold Once the sun did shine
