lyrics

Melody woke me
“sorry about the moon”, the song goes
I used to love it
Words like these for sad teens
I’m more optimistic
Tonight, looked outside at the waning gibbous

Am I gonna fall asleep wondering?
Am I gonna fall asleep?

Years back in the Reagan days,
I was born on a full moon
A Tuesday night well spent
Now if I stay awake
I’ll hear the birthday song sung
like it’s the first one
in about two weeks

“Am I gonna make something that outlives me?”
Yeah, for that we better hope we both get lucky

Interstate to interstate
I found a new age
running toward some golden flame
that I can’t save

Now I watch the snow turn blue at dusk
things that we’ve forgotten bend and rust
Night it comes colossal through the blinds to me
Am I gonna fall asleep wondering?
Am I gonna fall asleep?
