"Moonstruck (Nico's Song)" lyrics - JOHN CALE

Moonstruck, moonstruck
Moonstruck, moonstruck

You're a moonstruck junkie lady
Staring at your feet
Breathing words into an envelope
To be opened on your death

And miles and miles
And miles and miles
Miles and miles

Do the waltz and then the overture
In the belly of the beast
Please console me, yes please hold me
I have come to make my peace

And miles and miles
And miles and miles
And miles and miles to go

So afraid of your own shadow
Following close behind
How did you cover, so much territory?
Eating up the miles

And miles and miles to go
And miles and miles to go

Wanna take the day, wanna take the night
Wanna take the day, wanna take the night

And you can't see what's in front of you
Doesn't matter, you're broke

And looking for miles and miles
And miles and miles
And miles and miles to go
And miles and miles away

Don't be afraid of this life
Be afraid of this life
