And the Moon we Met.



And the Moon we Met!

And the Moon we Met,
At the crack of Noon
And the Moon we met.

We saw the Stars at a flaming view
And our Love we met.
When love reached peak,
As love reached fall
It sore to the core.

We never knew no downfall
Stars falling
Bickering creeks at falls end.
But as stones we lived,
As stones we live.

And the Moon we Met.
At the crack of Noon
And the Moon we Met.
We saw the Stars at a flaming view
And just before our love,
Just before our love.

When Love reached peak
As love reached fall
And tumbled into ashes.
The violence of these stars we never knew
As Rays decline to their horizons
Just before our eyes.

It all went up in flames,
And tumbled into ashes.
The Sun lays down
As the Sun laid to rest,
on our love's leap
And those howling weeps
When Night falls as we met.
And the Moon we Met.
