And the moon knocked on the doors of darkness
"Let me in," he said no
And the moon knocked where there was silence
But a raucous voice said, "It's too late"
So she flung open the wind's windows and went away
To look a bit farther
For another no, for another no
And the moon knocked on a pair of sunglasses
That look didn't notice her
And then she tried at a pool party
Without an invite, not even the moon gets in
So she rolled over champagne and caviar and went away
To look a bit farther
After crying a bit for another no
For another no from a waiter
Closer to the sidewalks
Where what you see is real
Between a child's lashes
To be able to fall asleep
Where luck is a luxury
Closer to the sidewalks
Where what you see is real
Between a child's lashes
To be able to fall asleep
Where luck is a luxury
