Melody woke me "Sorry about the moon," the song goes I used to love it Words like these for sad teens I'm more optimistic Tonight, looked outside at the waning gibbous Am I gonna fall asleep wondering? Am I gonna fall asleep? Years back in the Reagan days I was born on a full moon A Tuesday night well spent Now if I stay awake I'll hear the birthday song sung Like it's the first one In about two weeks "Am I gonna make something that outlives me?" Yeah, for that we better hope we both get lucky Interstate to interstate I found a new age Running toward some golden flame That I can't save Now I watch the snow turn blue at dusk Things that we've forgotten bend and rust Night it comes colossal through the blinds to me Am I gonna fall asleep wondering? Am I gonna fall asleep?
