Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dark mascara dripping down my face
Only fools could ever feel this way
Send my message into outer space
Wonder if it's gonna float your way
I can't compete with the stars in the sky
I'm invisible, invisible
I open the window to clear up my mind, but it's difficult
So difficult
[Pre-Chorus]
Houston, I know there's a problem here
Must be a hole in the atmosphere
Baby I wanna be closer to love
[Chorus]
Patience, darling
Wait for the night
Darkness comes and love comes alive
I've been right here dreaming of you
Waiting for my man on the moon, moon
[Verse 2]
Last night I was in your arms so strong
One small step and baby you were gone
Now there's meaning in the saddest songs
All I do is cry and sing along
[Pre-Chorus]
Drinking alone in my party dress
Would you come back if I looked my best
Put on a smile and I said to myself
[Chorus]
Patience, darling
Wait for the night
Darkness comes and love comes alive
I've been right here dreaming of you
Waiting for my man on the moon, moon
Moon, moon
[Bridge]
I can't compete with the stars in the sky
I'm invisible, invisible
I open the window to clear up my mind but it's difficult
(Why is it so difficult?)
So difficult

[Chorus]
Patience, darling
Wait for the night
Darkness comes and love comes alive
I've been right here dreaming of you
Waiting for my man on the moon, moon
Moon, moon
