Reaching for the Moon
words and music by me, dammit
At night I sit and I look out my window
I wonder why it seems so far away
Two hundred thousand miles put between us
And yet I think that I'll get there someday
Well, I'm reaching for the moon
And I hope I get there soon
Although I'm not sure what I would need to make it
But I cannot tell the moon
That I want to be there soon
And I don't know how much longer I can take it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
When I am walking that's the light that hits me
While everything I know is hid by night
It lifts my world when everything is failing
The sun could never make my life so bright
Well, I'm reaching for the moon
And I hope I get there soon
Although I'm not sure what I would need to make it
But I cannot tell the moon
That I want to be there soon
And I don't know how much longer I can take it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's sad to think I may be just a dreamer
I have a hope, that's all there is right now
But every night, I stand and watch the orbit
And tell myself that I'll reach it somehow
'Cause I'm reaching for the moon
And I hope I get there soon
Although I'm not sure what I would need to make it
But I cannot tell the moon
That I want to be there soon
And I don't know how much longer I can take it
'Cause I'm reaching for the moon
And I hope I get there soon
Although I'm not sure what I would need to make it
But I cannot tell the moon
That I want to be there soon
And I don't know how much longer I can take it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
At night I sit and I look out my window
And still I think that I'll get there someday
Two hundred thousand miles put between us
I wonder why you seem so far away
