Stone-Faced Moon

{Whistling}

I look at the stars, wait and wonder...
How many wishes will it take to get you back?
How can the moon just sit there with that smile on his face?
Doesn’t he care you left me without a trace?

Chorus:
Now I’m waistin’ time, waistin’ wishes
Starin’ down a stone-faced moon.
I’m growin’ tired, he never flinches.
Tryin’ to stare down a stone-faced moon.

Look at him laughin’ at my expense.
I know I shouldn’t let it bother me, but he’s killin’ my confidence.
Somebody needs to stop him, put the moon in his place.
I wish the sun would rise up and wipe that smile off his face.

Chorus:
‘Cause I’m waistin’ time, waistin’ wishes
Starin’ down a stone-faced moon.
I’m growin’ tired, he never flinches.
Tryin’ to stare down a stone-faced moon.

I’m waistin’ time, waistin’ wishes
Growin’ tired, he never flinches.
I’ll never make my wish for you
Tryin’ to stare down a stone-faced moon.
