i wish i was the moon tonight


"last night i dreamt i had forgotten my name
'cause i had sold my soul but awoke just the same
i'm so lonely
i wish i was the moon tonight

God blessed me, i'm a free man
with no place free to go
i'm paralyzed and collared-tight
no pills for what i fear

i'm so tired
i wish i was the moon tonight"

-from "i wish i was the moon" by neko case

  1. I have a long and loving relationship with the moon I never get tired of looking at it, basking in it's light, painting it or seeing others interpretations. This is splendid but if she isn't careful she's going to get a moonburn...causes lunacy you know.

  3. Well, I guess it's not so bad to be "mooned" when it's as artistically done as this. Ah, love that Neko Case.
