Marc Almond - Madame De La Luna Lyrics

She's in my veins, gold in my veins
She is my pain and my joy time and again
Waxing or waning, I am insane for La Luna
Madame De La Luna

When she is sleepy, she's creepy
Mysterious and wicked
When she is full, she is full
Of promise and joy

Beaming her smile all the while
Across Heaven's horizons
Weaving her dreams
Into hearts of lonely boys

But when I'm under the moon with you
I'm in Heaven
When I'm under the moon with you
I'm in Heaven

She'll bring out the killer
Bring out the lover

She loves a tyrant, a pirate
A dreamer, a crook and a liar
A joker, a trickster
Romancer, a dancer and fool

Cold as the frost
But in her heart is a fire
Hanging around the dark throat
Of the night like a jewel

But when I'm under the moon with you
I'm in Heaven
When I'm under the moon with you
I'm in Heaven

Moon, moon, delirious moon
Alone in the blue like a silver balloon
Moon, moon, delirious moon
Dancing a waltz to a lunatic's tune

Madame De La Luna, bewitching is she
I cannot live without her, she's scattering stars
Dancing with Mars, cheek to cheek
With La Luna, cheek to cheek with La Luna

Madame De La Luna
She sings as she brings in the harvest
She pulls out her tongue
At the cruel Ethiopian sun

When she's hiding
The dark can bring a terrible vengeance
A pounce in the shadows
A moment alone with a gun

Adrift on a sea of indigo silk
Passionate like an Arabian torch
Enticing two lovers to jump off a bridge
Changing the man into the wolf

Sometimes she's a terrible flirt
Causing mischief and mayhem wherever she can
Sometimes she's a woman that hurts
Sometimes she is a man

Encouraging drunks to sing coarse serenades
Lighting the way for the young renegades

But when I'm under the moon with you
I'm in Heaven
When I'm under the moon with you
I'm in Heaven

She says better times are gonna come soon
Better times are gonna come soon
Trust in the moon, trust in the moon
La Luna
