Liars' Moon
--words and music by Michael Stanley/Bob Pelander

from "The Ghost Poets", 1993, Razor & Tie Entertainment



There ain't nothing you can do tonight
There ain't nowhere you can hide
There ain't no one gonna save you now...
Baby, here comes the long, cold ride

You know she turns her attention to the next in line,
Turns on the charm, in no time
She's got another lover in her trance--
Yeah, you never stood a chance

      (And I know) 
     Yeah, I know, 'cause I've been there
     She's too much, too soon (too soon)
       She'll sell your soul for a few cheap thrills
          ...under a liars' moon
      (And I know)       
     I know all about her
     Way too much, too soon (too soon)
       The dead men from her looks that kill,
         she leaves 'em under a liars' moon (under a liars')
          ...under a liars' moon
          ...under a liars' moon
          ...it's so dark
          ...under a liars' moon
 
Take my advice now and listen real good
You're going down the hard way
She'll make you feel like you can walk on water,
But that feeling won't stay

You know she moves it in real close and tight
She'll tell you what she's gonna do tonight
She'll leave you bleeding in the morning light--
Yeah, it ain't a pretty sight

      (And I know) 
     Yeah, I know, 'cause I've been there
     She's too much, too soon (too soon)
       She'll sell your soul for a few cheap thrills
          ...under a liars' moon
      (And I know)       
     I know all about her
     Way too much, too soon (too soon)
       The dead men from her looks that kill,
         she leaves 'em under a liars' moon (under a liars')
          ...under a liars' moon
          ...under a liars' moon
          ...she'll leave 'em
          ...under a liars' moon

      (And I know) 
     Yeah, I know, 'cause I've been there
     She's too much, too soon (too soon)
       She'll sell your soul for a few cheap thrills
          ...under a liars' moon
      (And I know)       
     I know all about her
     Way too much, way too soon (too soon)
       The dead men from her looks that kill,
         she leaves 'em under a liars' moon (under a liars')
          ...under a liars' moon

          Shine on, baby, shine on (shine on)
          Shine on, (shine on, shine on)
          ...under a liars' moon (under)
          She'll leave you (she'll leave you)
          ...under a liars' moon (under, under)
          dark, dark night
          ...under a liars' moon
          ...under a liars' moon
          they'll find you, under a liars' moon
