Standing on the moon I'm feeling so alone and blue

I see the Gulf of Mexico as tiny as a tear

The coast of California must be somewhere over here, over here
Standing on the moon I see the battle rage below
Standing on the moon I see the soldiers come and go
There's a metal flag beside me someone planted long ago

It's like a mighty melody that rings down from the sky

Standing here upon the moon I watch it all roll by
G C C/B Am G F (F#) G C
All roll by, all roll by, all roll by
Standing on the moon I see a shadow on the sun
Standing on the moon the stars go fading one by one
I hear a cry of victory and another of defeat
A scrap of age-old lullaby down some forgotten street
Standing on the moon where talk is cheap and vision true
Standing on the moon, but I would rather be with you
Somewhere in San Francisco on a back porch in July
Just looking up to heaven at this crescent in the sky, in the sky

Standing on the moon with nothing left to do

A lovely view of heaven, but I'd rather be with you

A lovely view of heaven, but I'd rather be with you, be with you

Be with you, I'd rather be with you
Be with you, I'd rather be with you
I'd rather be with you, be with you
Be with you, be with you...
