Man on The Moon

As I look up at the face
Of the man in the moon
I wonder, "Can he see
The depth of my wounds?"

With his eye overlooking
All of this world
Does he ever hone in on
This dumb silly girl?

A girl who's afraid
To let someone in
Because when she does
She gets hurt again

A girl who is simple
Who just wants to be loved
Who hasn't figured out
When too much is too much

So tonight I'll look up at
That man on the moon
And pray that this heartache
Will go away soon.
