Flowers on the Moon Songtext
von AJ Mitchell

Two hearts gone cold, some things don′t grow
Your hands in mine like leaves in snow
Like sun and rain, we just can't be
You′re what I want, not what I need

So, tell me how long can we live on like this?
You're the smoke in my lungs and the scars on my skin, oh
All the air in this room, it's been wearing down thin
It′s sad, but it′s true

'Cause we′re beautiful, but we just won't make it through
Baby, you and I, we′re like flowers on the moon

We've tried so hard to make this work
Pretending fire doesn′t burn
We could play fools, ignore the cracks
But darlin', we dance on fragile glass, oh


So, tell me how long can we live on like this?
You're the smoke in my lungs and the scars on my skin, oh
All the air in this room, it′s been wearing down thin
It′s sad, but it's true

′Cause we're beautiful, but we just won′t make it through
Baby, you and I, we're like flowers on the moon

I can′t grow next to you
Can't breathe these toxic fumes
High over the clouds, we're jumping without a parachute
′Cause if I fall then you′ll fall too, ooh

So, tell me how long can we live on like this?
You're the smoke in my lungs and the scars on my skin, oh
All the air in this room, it′s been wearing down thin
It's sad, but it′s true

'Cause we′re beautiful, but we just won't make it through
'Cause we′re beautiful, but we just won′t ever bloom
Baby, you and I, we're like flowers on the moon
