Lyrics
Joker moon, I saw the girl and I took a chance,
Now you got me hanging from a breaking branch,
But that's what you do, joker moon
Joker moon, singing ballads of Honalee,
You made me see just want I wanted to see,
Yeah, I know you, joker moon
Joker moon, up there grinning with your powdered face
While you bring me to a deep disgrace,
I shoulda seen it coming, joker moon
Tell me why are we so foolish?
Tell me why are the Illusions we hold
So very sweet to behold?
Joker moon, I know what you really are,
So I'll look beyond you to a distant star,
I'll find my hope there, joker moon
Joker moon, I saw you hustling in the gambling hall,
They bet their fortunes and they lost it all,
That's the game you play, joker moon
Tell me why are we so foolish?
Tell me why are the Illusions we hold
So very sweet to behold?
Joker moon, you filled my nights up with hard regrets,
But the world turns and the world forgets,
And so will I, joker moon
