Fingernail Moon
The Jayhawks

Underneath the fingernail moon
Underneath the fingernail moon
I was feeling like, it was almost funny.
Small towns around, lighting up the sky.
Like a dozen dealers on opening night.

Without the lights I can see the stars
Without the voices I can hear the words
What did you mean when I heard you say
that a whisper is louder than a scream?

Well I wonder which one is the mayor's daughter?
What was she thinking of, would her daddy approve?
and you can't keep a secret from the minister's son.
Cause they'll write your name on the water tower

Without the lights I can see the stars
Without the voices I can hear the words
What did you mean when I heard you say
that a whisper is louder than a scream?

When the world around is closing in
and things don't seem right.
It takes looking out a window.
Yeah, underneath a fingernail moon.
I was feeling like it was almost funny.
I was feeling like it was almost funny.
