Grapefruit Moon Lyrics

Nanci Griffith

Grapefruit moon, one star shining Shining down on me I heard that tune and now I'm pining Honey, can't you see?
Every time I hear that melody Something breaks inside And the grapefruit moon, one star shining Can't turn back the tide
Never had a destination Could not get across And you became my inspiration Oh, but what a cost
Every time I hear that melody Something breaks inside And the grapefruit moon, one star shining It's more than I can hide
Now I'm smoking Cigarettes and strive for purity And I'll slip Just like the stars into obscurity
Every time I hear that melody It puts me up a tree And the grapefruit moon, one star shining Is all that I can see
