Oh, don't let the moon get you down.nThat peculiar moon just knows how to frown.nOn their fingertips was secured a string,nso they didn't forget the fibs they'd foreseen.nnThe sailor was sinking, his words left unsaid.nHe pleaded a promise, regrettably dead.nAnd yet, he had the most beautiful eyes,nnWe were the sailors, the sins of the sea.nBy breath of the wind, we were carried away.nI prayed the moon would never let go,nbut it fell from the sky.nMy love, I believe you were a lie.nnThe sailors were swallowed in the maelstrom that night.nIn these parts, you see, hurricanes aren't polite.nThe ship then condemned, he whispered a lie.nHe said, “we are in love, and all will be fine.â€nnHe's too much of a coward to croon out his faith.nHe's much too irate to believe in a fate.nThat afterward calm harbored no hope,nfor midnight was fancy that sank like a boat.nnWe were the sailors, the sins of the sea.nHe lured down the moonlight and left it to grieve.nWe hid our halos, got lost in your eyes,nbut I fell from the sky.nMy love, I believe you were a lie.
