Tonight, tonight the moon is clean
There's nothing in between the light that throws a sheen
On everything we think we see under the stars
And neon of the bars convincing us we are in love

But any moment now a cloud or two will crowd above us

For love is a fleeting thing
A lying and a cheating thing

Most times it seems the road to love is a tangle
Always an angle
Keeps me from finding love in a maze of covering
Love is just misleading me
A mistake defeating me

To me it feels like love is willful and confusing
Always abusing lovers like me who keep the flame
Praying to meet another who keeps the same
Holding a heart unclaimed more than another game

Still I'll go on searching, weaving and lurching
Hoping one day to see love clear

Most times it seems the road to love is a tangle
Always an angle
Keeps me from finding love in a maze of covering
Love is just misleading me
On a whim, defeating me
To me it feels like love is willful and confusing
Always abusing lovers like me who keep the flame
Praying to meet another who keeps the same
Holding a heart unclaimed more than another game
Still, I'll go on searching, weaving and lurching
Hoping one day to see love clear
To see love clear
To see love clear
