Chris & Devon Aitken – The Moon in Daylight lyrics

The Moon in Daylight (Chris & Devon Aitken)

Verse 1: I'm four. I'm walking with my mum.

Going to the fair. To have a little fun.

She sees an old friend. They begin to talk.

So I wander off. To take a little walk.

Pre-chorus 1: I smile at the rides

and the games and the fun.

It's good to be alive

just walkin' in the sun.

But I look all around -

My mother isn't there.

I realize that I am lost.

Chorus 1: It's like I'm...

upside down on

the inside of my spoon

someone's trying to change

the notes of my favourite tune

when was it exactly

that I lost all my fight?

I guess I lost my way

like the Moon in the Daylight

Verse 2: I'm ten. I've always gone to church.

I thought of myself. As “God's little girl”.

I look at my life. And the choices I've made.

I know I'm far from Him and who I really am.

Pre-chorus 2: My grandpa's gone.

I hope I don't forget his song.

A lot of good notes

(and a couple that were wrong).

I've learned to deal with loss

but I wonder at the cost.

I realize I am lost.

Bridge: I'm a teen now, I've got it all.

People say I'm on the ball.

A-list friends, happy ends,

my iPod playlist never ends.

But no one sees I try to be

something I can never be.

When all I want is one good friend

to stay with me until the end.

Coda: I look in my spoon

and see my world is upside down

I turn it around

and the world's as it should be.
