Bruce Hornsby - Sad Moon Lyrics
I think maybe I knew her in schoolIn my memory's faded viewI remember years ago, her name I barely knewYears later I saw her in townKnocking on my window talking loudShe said baby do you need a dateOr just a little foolin' aroundWay down where the red light's lowSlinkin' down where the bad seeds growCrawlin' where the sun don't show'Neath the sad moonWalking the streets, all on displayStanding there and laying in waitShe looks at me and I look away'Neath the sad moonI said thanks, no I don't need thatBut as she turned her ***** backShe turned to go, and I just had to stare at her walking awayLooking out there it might be meBut for the grace of God oh I can seeA grain of sand, a strand of hairA chromosome or someone's dareWay down where the red light's lowSlinkin' down where the bad seeds growCrawlin' where the sun don't show'Neath the sad moonWalking the streets, all on displayStanding there and laying in waitShe looks at me and I look away'Neath the sad moonCouldn't help but follow herFelt so bad but couldn't stopCuriosity's got me, worth a damn I know I'm notI put her down but want her tooAshamed to say I want her a lotGuess I'll go and move alongLet it go, let it dropWay down where the red light's lowSlinkin' down where the bad seeds growCrawlin' where the sun don't show'Neath the sad moonWalking the streets, all on displayStanding there and laying in waitShe looks at me and I look away'Neath the sad moon
