Monkey to the Moon - The Coral, Coral lyrics

I was the one
I who could pull in all the stars above
Lay them on your feet
And I gave you my love

You are the one who got me started
You could have let me love anyone
But I only wanted you
So why did it make me cry?
Why didn't you come get me one last time?

You'll always know reason why
We could have had the moon and the sky
You'll always know reason why this love
Reason why this love ain't gon' let you go
Ain't gon' let you go

You lay me down, left me for alliance
Long, long time ago
You left me there dying
But you'll never let me go

You'll always know reason why
We could have had the moon and the sky
You'll always know reason why this love
Reason why this love ain't gon' let you go
Ain't gon' let you go

I know we could have had it all
I wasn't ready to go steady, no, not at all
Smoke and mirrors clouded my vision, we hit a wall
Couldn't see the moon and the sky behind the fog
Pregnant pause

Damn your baby tall, what you been up to?
I don't blame you, my doll, yeah, we kinda stalled
As God as my witness, timin' was my mistress
I guess it's in the stars for me to love you from a distance

Uh, our ship sail, uh, the wind blows
The door's always open but our window was closed
You always thought what if
But that'll just drive you crazy, baby girl interrupted
Thinkin' 'bout what wasn't

Thinkin' 'bout what was it, was it somethin' I done?
Somethin' I could do better although nothin' could be done
Sometimes you get what you need
Not what you think you want?
So baby, no moon and sky, got a beautiful sun

You'll always know the reason why
The song you heard will stay on your mind
It ain't gon' let you go, no
'Cause you are the moon and I the endless sky

You'll always know the reason why
We could have had the moon and the sky
You'll always know

We are the moon and the sky above
I gave you my love
Ain't gon' let you go

I was the one
