MOONSTRUCK (Nico’s Song) Songtext
von John Cale

Moonstruck, moonstruck
Moonstruck, moonstruck

You′re a moonstruck junkie lady, staring at your feet
Breathing words into an envelope
To be opened on your death
And miles and miles
And miles and miles
Miles and miles

Do the waltz and then the overture in the belly of the beast
Please console me, yes please hold me
I have come to make my peace
And miles and miles
And miles and miles
And miles and miles to go


So afraid, of your own shadow
Following close behind
How did you cover, so much territory
Eating up the miles
And miles and miles to go
And miles and miles to go

(And miles and miles to go)
Wanna take the day, wanna take the night (and miles and miles to go)
Wanna take the day, wanna take the night (and miles and miles to go)

And you can't see what′s in front of you
Doesn't matter, you're broke
And looking for miles and miles
And miles and miles
And miles and miles to go
And miles and miles away

Don′t be afraid of this life
Be afraid of this life
