Grapefruit Moon

TOM WAITS

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 destinations, 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
