Tempting The Moon

Title Submitted By: Jina Hawk

Genre: indie, Piano

I wrote this music first, and then scrolled through my 200+ song titles to find a good fit. I even had the “la da da’s” recorded. “Tempting the Moon” seemed perfect, and I liked the idea of the moon as sort of an elusive lover. Another of my favorites.

La la…

Don’t try, to hide

You can’t run away

Rapt and ruled by

One beautiful face

And she knows

And it shows

In every heart that she breaks

And her feet go

Where the wind blows

Gone like yesterday

La la…

Spellbound, somehow

Caught up in her arms

Far from wisdom

Trading mercy for scars

You’re a fool, tempting the moon

Shes waxes and wanes

And her heart goes

‘Round in circles

Orbiting it’s cage

La la…

Stretched out as wide as the midnight sky

A new day, to leave all the reasons why

Behind

La la…
