Feeling Like the Moon

Creep up the horizon.
Make a lover’s night.
Gazed at by a million,
In a telescopic sight.
Who amplify my flaws while
They keep me away.
Anyone looks gorgeous
A hundred thousand miles away!

Too much beauty in one place,
Always got a smile on my face,
Maybe I’m tired of goin’ down with the sun
I’m coming undone.
Need reflection to make me shine
I make planets fall into line
But even I have my dark side too,
I feel like the moon.

For twelve hours I disappear.
Spying on you from over here,
Watching what the daylight lets you do.
I feel like the moon.
