The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress See her how she flies Golden sails across the skies Close enough to touch But careful if you try Those she looks as warm as gold The moon is a harsh mistress The moon can be so cold Once the sun did shine And Lord it felt so fine The moon of phantom rose Through the mountains and the pie And then the darkness fell The moon is a harsh mistress It's hard to love her well I fell out of her eyes I fell out of her heart I fell down on my face And I drift and met my star I fell, I fell alone The moon is a harsh mistress The sky is made of stone The moon is a harsh mistress She's hard to call your own
