Yellow moon shining like fool's gold
Slipping soflty into the sea
Memories how they linger
Guess we weren't strong enough, you and me

Still I look to find a reason
Search my mind for a vision
Hide from the answers as the questions
Burn in my head

[Chorus:]
Shining like a fool's moon
Shining like a fool's moon
Burning out way too soon
Shining like a fool's moon

I wish I'd known you as a child
I wish I'd known you when my heart ran wild
Never knew how much I'd miss those dream-filled days

[Chorus]
And when all is said and done
My loneliness has just begun
But you make it look so easy
Never winning but never caring if you lose
[Chorus]
