The Moon

"Are you gonna mope all night?"

I focus my eyes, I guess he's probably right

"Did you drag me off from my couch

So we could sit here in silence until we say goodnight?"

He says, "We need a change of scene

Let's go to the bar around the corner where it's always dark"

And as we're putting our money down

Claire's asking Charlie if we're hittin' the town

He says, "We're making our way to the moon

And we're taking off soon"

She says, "I'd be down for the moon

But I didn't bring my helmet"

She catches me rolling my eyes

So I say, "I packed a spare"

I don't think it saves me, but she doesn't seem to care

She's asking Rose for her bill

And just as she's paying, Judy walks in the door

She's giving Charlie a hug

She won't look in my eyes, but she asks where we're going

He says, "We're making our way to the moon

And we're taking off soon"

Judy laughs a little too hard

I didn't think it was that funny the first time around

Claire asks if she'd like to join

She says, "That'd be nice," and I don't know what the hell's going on

But soon we're walking the street

Charlie's walking with Claire and Judy's walking with me

I say, "I didn't expect to see you"

She says, "To be honest, I knew exactly where you'd be"

And I say, "Making my way to the moon"

And she laughs too soon

That old feeling pours over me

Reaches to the pit of my stomach, so I reach for her hand

She pulls it away from me

She says, "You know it can't be like that"

We'll just make our way to the moon

And I'll see you soon
