Why The Moon Can't Talk


“I betrayed you with the stars”,
said the moon to the sun.
Who would believe it? Who would?
Who would believe it?

“I did the same as all of them”,
said the moon to the sun,
pointing at lovers who were
moving together like rhymes

in poetry.
Said the moon to the sun.
But who would believe it? Who would?
Who would believe it?

It’s why the moon can’t talk
and why lovers wait
for the night to come
and hide their face.

It’s why the moon can’t talk,
why secrets stay safe
and why the voices of the night
remain silent all the time.

“I betrayed you with the stars”,
said the moon to the sun.
But who would believe it? Who would?
Who would believe it?

“But we’re as happy as can be”,
said the sun to the moon,
thinking of all the times, when
they knew there was nothing

Except them and poetry.
Said the moon to the sun,
but who would believe it? Who would?
Who would believe it?

It’s why the moon can’t talk
and why lovers wait
for the night to come
and hide their face.

It’s why the moon can’t talk,
why secrets stay safe
and why the voices of the night
remain silent all the time.

Don’t you know that I’m in love
with you only, beautiful?
But you don’t believe me. No, you
you don’t believe me.

I just missed you all the night
and I tried to forget
all the tears in my head
forgot to count all the ones that I shed.

I got tired of the rain
like the lovers on earth.
But still there’s nothing
that could explain.

It’s why the moon can’t talk
and why lovers wait
for the night to come
and hide their face.

It’s why the moon can’t talk,
why secrets stay safe
and why the voices of the night
remain silent all the time.

It was distraction no more
and no less after all,
trying to keep myself
from going insane.

“I betrayed you with the stars”,
said the moon to the sun
and then they parted
for the rest of your lives they’ll stay alone.

It’s why the moon can’t talk
and why lovers wait
for the night to come
and hide their face.

It’s why the moon can’t talk,
why secrets stay safe
and why the voices of the night
remain silent all the time.
