Chasing down the autobahn
with feelings coming fast
Pale like the future,
like a memory from the past
I must have seen your face up
there in the cloud above
This afternoon was empty as
back then was full of love
I don't know where you went to
but I still can see the room
It's times like these I think of you
In a pale blue moon
It was back in
New
York
City at the
Gramercy
Hotel
A bed, bath, a stereo,
some records we loved well
We talked about the future and
how influenced our lives
So many disappointments,
but our lovers, were white
I heard your brother hung himself,
he was mournful as a loon
I think of you,
then think of him every morning
In a pale blue moon
Blue moon, blue moon
Everyone's in a pale blue moon
You got married, had a son
I found someone to marry
She played bass on my heart strings,
my breath was steady but not true
Her husband was ambitious,
too famous and too cruel
They found your body in a bathtub by a shadow,
bless the mule
One night I had a dream of us be
side the wind and the moon
At times like these I see it clear that it was
In a pale blue moon
Blue moon
Blue moon,
Well, in a moment,
In a pale blue moon
Racing down the autobahn,
the field's spinning fast
Playing like the future,
like a memory of the past
I must have seen your face up there,
in a cloud above
This afternoon was empty,
as back then was full of love
I don't know where you went to,
but I still can see the room
It's times like these I
think of you every once
In a pale blue moon
Blue moon
Moon
But every once
In a pale blue moon
Yeah
You
