Distance to the Moon

This time each night, her voice will shout my name
The tide is high, it's pulling the moon my way
While my love waits up there hanging out in space
She lives in craters, eatin' alien plants all day
What is the distance to the moon anyway?
I'm howlin' away
You know me, I'm howlin' away

The atmosphere can be an awful place
I spread my wings until they make me burn and break
This hopeless planet don't got much for me no more
It's lonesome and it's empty, oh the one that I adore
What is the distance to the moon anyway?
I'm howlin' away
You know me, I'm howlin' away

And so I'll build a great big ladder up to you, my love
And I will climb and climb and climb until I hold you in my arms
Yet I keep on falling back to Earth
I'm nothing but a dreamer
What is the distance to the moon anyway?
I'm howlin' away
You know me, I'm howlin' away
You know me, I'm howlin' away
