paper moon
let your tiny light be my guide
and the waves will open my eyes
so I can find you
and a heart bereft of a breeze
no whispers of quieting trees
it’s just silent now.
it’s a paper moon
fading out of view
it’s a paper moon
and I miss you
it’s a paper moon
in the shadow’s truth
it’s a paper moon
and I miss you
I miss you
paper moon.
seen reflected on to the lake
where my little hand you did take
and you kissed me
and our dreams got washed to the shore
and we saw no light anymore
we were drifting
it’s a paper moon
fading out of view
it’s a paper moon
and I miss you
it’s a paper moon
in the shadow’s truth
it’s a paper moon
and I miss you
I miss you
