Yellow moon shining like fool's gold - slipping softly into the sea
Memories how they linger, guess we weren't strong enough, you and me

Still I look to find a reason - search my mind for a vision
Hide from the answers as the questions burn in my head

Shining like a fool's moon
Shining like a fool's moon
Burning out way too soon
Shining like a fool's moon

I wish I'd known you as a child - I wish I'd known you when my heart ran wild
Never knew how much I'd miss those dream filled days

Shining like a fool's moon
Shining like a fool's moon
Burning out way too soon
Shining like a fool's moon

And when all is said and done - my loneliness has just begun
But you make it look so easy - never winning but never caring if you lose

Shining like a fool's moon
Shining like a fool's moon
Burning out way too soon
Shining like a fool's moon
