New Phase Of The Moon

Last night the moon was shining through my bedroom window
And I found myself reaching for the phone
But I stopped my hand before it dialed your number, cause I knew
If you were there, you would not be alone.

Not long ago you came and told me you were leaving
Now that someone else had caught your eye
You said it’s just one of those things, we have to deal with what life brings
But maybe you’d feel better if you cried.

CHORUS


I thought that you would be my one and only through the years
But now I know one never should assume
We could blame it on your heart that’s grown so distant and so cold
Or just blame it on the new phase of the moon.


You used to say that we would always be together
But now I know you never really cared
Just like a ghost that I can’t see, you left a haunting memory
And it follows like my shadow everywhere.
