Once I held a moon

Once I held a moon, a lover's gift
If memory serves me right
Once I owned a sky where moons could drift
And bathe my world in light
I held onto to that moon
as long as he was there Just holding me
But it means nothing to moons you see
Once I held a moon,
a lover's was not his to give This is life he said,
enjoy But it wasn't mine to live
I let the moon slips through my finger
And my love let go of me But it means nothing to moons you see
They sail through the night
and you follow You hitch up your heart To that moon like a cart
It's all you know
how You're faced with your pride
but can't swallow
You lift up your spoon
And you howl at the moon that it shouldn't have shone
and that you are not as gone
Once I held a moon
And by its light I loved
And he loved me
But it means nothing to moons you see
Once I held a moon Once I held a moon
