Yellow moon shining like fool's gold - slipping softly 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 
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 
Shining like a fool's moon 
Shining like a fool's moon 
Burning out way too soon 
Shining like a fool's moon 
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 
Shining like a fool's moon 
Shining like a fool's moon 
Burning out way too soon 
Shining like a fool's moon
