Bitter moon
Tekst og musik: Ivan Pedersen - Søren Jacobsen/Ivan Pedersen


Just one look and he caught fire the moment her picture settled in
to have and hold was his desire so the story can begin
under the moon - bitter moon
nothing´s quite what it seems in the light of the bitter moon

When he asked her the size of ring she said: you move to far to fast
her shaking hand didn´t mean a thing
when he swore that his love would last
under the moon - bitter moon
nothing´s quite what it seems in the light of the bitter moon


She tried to talk about this boy she meet
and that her daddy thought she wasn´t ready yet
she hugged him saying he would soon forget
but he said: no no no no no no

Johnny pulls of waterdrops the boardwalks still the line
love or lust or just desire anything to catch a shine
under the moon - bitter moon
nothing´s quite what it seems in the light of the bitter moon

Burning wheels into a cloud of dust down the moonlit road to hell
crying oceans for the love he´d lost another fool caught in the spell
under the moon - bitter moon
nothing´s quite what it seems in the light of the bitter moon

under the moon - bitter moon
nothing´s quite what it seems in the light of the bitter moon
nothing´s quite what it seems in the light of the bitter moon
