Verse 1:
Grapefruit moon, one star shining,
Shi-ning down on me.
Heard that tune, and now I'm pining,
Ho-ney, can't you see?
Chorus 1:
'Cos every time I hear that melody,
Well, something breaks in-side.
And the grapefruit moon, one star shining,
Can't turn back, the tide.

Verse 2:
Never had, no desti-nation,
Could not get a-cross.
You be-came, my inspi-ration,
Oh, but what a cost.
Chorus 2:
'Cos every time I hear that melody,
Well, something breaks in-side.
And the grapefruit moon, one star shining,
Is more than I, can hide.

Verse 3:
Now I'm smoking, ciga-rettes, and I,
Strive for puri-ty.
And I slip, just like the stars,
In-to ob-scuri-ty.
Chorus 3:
'Cos every time I hear that melody,
Well, something breaks in-side.
And the grapefruit moon, one star shining,
Is all that I, can see.
