Requiem Delluomo Sulla Luna Lyrics

In a city without a name,

A man plays his harp for change

At the corner of the city square

He was a handsome cat

Silver tongue, dressed in all black

Made a living as an au pair

He stole the hearts of women

With words as smooth as linen

He'd use their bodies then run

Until this fateful encounter

He met with a woman of power

He'd never use anyone again

Midnight had struck the town

The city slept without a sound

The man walked back from the square

The moon overhead

She heard the man tread

And loved her gaze to his smile so fair

He looked up at her

Her beauty was too much to defer

He played a tribute to her on his harp

She felt her heart explode

She lifted the man to the cosmos

They made love and then the man started to depart

Don't worry love I'll be back some day

And I'll make all your pain and trouble go away

I really wish that I could stay

Oooh

For all the lovers he did croon

He met with the dark side of the moon

Her wrath would be his doom

Oooh

A couple months had past

Since she had seen the man last

Her heavy gear grew concerned

She'd call out to him on the gentle night wind

But never heard anything in return

Until the break of dawn

She heard amongst the birdsong

A familiar melody as she decent

The man with his harp

Played softly in a woman's arms

He kissed her slowly and with devilish intent he said

Don't worry love I'll be back some day

And I'll make all your pain and trouble go away

I really wish that I could stay

Oooh

For all the lovers he did croon

He met with the dark side of the moon

Her wrath would be his doom

Oooh

He saw her staring in the dawn kissed sky

His eyes grew wide as he pushed the woman to the side

The sky turned black the sun receded into a canopy of stars

Eternal night took over as the moon rose

Her pride scarred

The moon overhead

It filled the man's soul with dread

He was caught without a plan

The moons rage had boiled

Rational thought completely soiled

She had enough of this man

He begged and pleaded with her

Tried to play his harp to soothe her

But his silver tongue had turned to coal

She grabbed the man

Crushing him in her cold hands

And took him never to return home again

But they say if you listen

Turn your ears to the stars the glisten

You can hear the man sing

Don't worry love I'll be back some day

And I'll make all your pain and trouble go away

I really wish that I could stay

Oooh

For all the lovers he did croon

He met with the dark side of the moon

Her wrath would be his doom

Oooh
