The summer night is soft and still.
As I descend this lonely hill
Into the city lyin' down below.
I don't need to see the sky
The emptiness I feel inside
Tells me something I already know.

Chorus:
There's a ... (Must be a...)
Fool moon out tonight.
And it's shining bright on the lonely lives and the love they'll never find.
And like a fool I'm thinking of you and I wanna cry.
Must be a fool moon out tonight.

The smoky bar is dark and loud
I'm running with a swinging crowd
So many here together so alone
They're making moves, it's gettin' late
The desperate game accelerates
They're willing to go anywhere but home
(repeat chorus)
