The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress Lyrics - Connoisseur's Cocker - Joe Cocker

See her as she flies 

Golden sails across the skies 

Close enough to touch 

But careful if you try 

Though she looks as warm as gold 

The moon's a harsh mistress 

The moon can be so cold 

Once the sun did shine 

And Lord it felt so fine 

The moon a phantom rose 

Through the mountains and the pine 

And then the darkness fell 

The moon's a harsh mistress 

It's hard to love her well 

I fell out of her eyes 

I fell out of her heart 

I fell down on my face, yes I did 

And I tripped and I missed my star 

And I fell and fell alone 

The moon's a harsh mistress 

The sky is made of stone
