I Wish I Was The Moon

(Drawing done by Kim - good huh? I really like it... Check out her other images - great artist! And here are lyrics from one of my favorite songs... by Neko Case.)

I Wish I Was The Moon
by Neko Case

chimney falls and lover's blaze
thought that I was young
now I've freezin' hands and bloodless veins
as numb as I've become
I'm so tired, I wish I was the moon tonight

last night I dreamt I'd forgotten my name
'cause I sold my soul but I woke just the same
I'm so lonely, I wish I was the moon tonight

god bless me I'm a free man
with no place free to go
paralyzed and collared tight
no pills for what I fear
this is crazy, I wish I was the moon tonight

chimney falls as lover's blaze
thought that I was young
now I've freezin' hands and bloodless veins
as numb as I've become
I'm so tired, I wish I was the moon tonight

how will you know if you've found me at last
'cause I'll be the one, be the one, be the one
with my heart in my lap

I'm so tired, I'm so tired
and I wish I was the moon...
tonight
