Intro: and Verse:

Oh Id like to find myself trapped in some desert town with you
just me and you
my long black hair all waving in the dry wind
me waving at you my lover from some ancient balcony
But like a thirsty vision I see you and youre gone
where could you have run to?
come back come on back, come on back
But youre gone to California
and its just my fate making me blue
why else would I see you today?

— (just keep on going)

But Im not in some desert town and youre not there with me, im underground in NYC
the city of perpetual motion, the city that never sleeps
thats alright I wasnt tired anyways
I was so close to getting clear
thought I had nothing to fear
youd be on a plane and youd be gone
and it would be done
But there are eighteen million people in this town
I spent the day just bumming around
just to bump into you on Third Avenue.

CHORUS
Its a pale moon, burning sun
when will I see my only one
Pale moon, burning sun
when will i see my only one?

I think its unbelievable,
I think its incredible,
its magical, its tragic.
but I know well meet again someday
well be very far away
Ill know you and youll know me
and were gonna both agree
that we belong together
we belong together
we belong together

CHORUS
Its a pale moon, burning sun
when will I see my only one
Pale moon, burning sun
when will i see my only one?
