I am waiting for the telephone to tell me I'm alive
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
We leave just before it's gone
We leave just before it's gone
All the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
All the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
Waiting for the moon to come and light me up inside
Daylight fading, come and waste another year
Daylight fading, come and waste another year
It's getting cold in California, I guess I'll be leaving soon
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
I want to say, “Goodbye to you, goodbye to all my friends
When we see the early signs that daylight's fading
We leave just before it's gone
If you tell me that you'll wait for me, I'll say I won't be here
Well, I heard you let somebody get their fingers into you
Daylight fading, come and waste another year

But all the things I keep inside myself, they vanish in the air
