Grapefruit Moon lyrics
Song information
Artist: Tom Waits Album: Closing Time
Lyrics
Grapefruit moon, one star shining Shining down on me Heard that tune, and now I'm pining Honey, can't you see? 'Cause every time I hear that melody Well, something breaks inside And the grapefruit moon, one star shining Can't turn back the tide
Never had no destination, could not get across You became my inspiration, oh but what a cost 'Cause every time I hear that melody Well, something breaks inside And the grapefruit moon, one star shining Is more than I can hide
Now I'm smoking cigarettes And I strive for purity And I slip just like the stars into obscurity 'Cause every time I hear that melody Well, puts me up a tree And the grapefruit moon, one star shining Is all that I can see
