Countermoon lyrics

On a night like thisYou look up at your loverIt's like you're in some old cartoonThen you detectThe scent of faded rosesUp in the skyThere's that cruel countermoonCould that be murder you see in her eyesYou try a long and desperate kissYou can't escape itThat beam is sure to find you[Chorus:]On a night like thisThe story is toldHow the women get restlessAnd the men grow coldGotham shuddersThere's a chill in the airThere's a countermoonLovers all bewareHand in handYou walk along the riverYou stop to clutch and caressA countermoonbeamComes sweeping off the waterShe says "You're not my Jackie.My Jackie was the best."Spitewaves are threateningThe seaside hotelsIt's nasty weather for JulyLast night you loved herTonight you wonder why[Chorus]At every pay phoneThere's somebody cryin'All the streets are slick with tearsWhen you see that blue rayThere's a heartquake on the way[Chorus]
