Stephin Merritt - Save a Secret for the Moon lyrics

[Verse 1: Stephin Merritt] I know all the names of your tears And numbers of these lonely years I know all the someone's some days Don't believe them anyway [Chorus 1] When you love someone You can always tell the sun It will be twilight soon Save a secret for the moon [Chorus 2] In a darkened room Write it on a black balloon Then watch it fade from view Save a secret for the moon [Verse 2] I can show you sadder poetry Than you ever dreamed there could be I know all the saddest people Most of them are dead now [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2]
