Man In the Moon

Baby, come home soon
I grow tired of these conversations
with the man in the moon

I can not lie 
Mesmerized by his bright beauty
I keep talking to the sky

I pour out my soul
Waiting for his sweet reply
though it were you there to console

As the night comes to fade
Without a single response
I soon realize that I was played

Really he's such a fake
Pretending to soothe and ease the pain
Of my broken heart ache

O how I long for you
the softness of your voice 
whispering in my ear, its true

Baby I'll be home soon
but I get there
We'll talk to the same man in the moon
