beetles and the palm trees

i need the moon
more than the moon needs me
still
it's nice to know something's not going anywhere for a while
and as the night rolls on
even into loneliness
i wonder
if she has as good a view of my stillness
as i do of her brightness
it's incredible
how strong i can be
when there's no,one to let down
how faithful i am
without any,one to fail
i need the moon
more than the moon needs me
still
i only tell those who aren't going anywhere for a while
and that includes the beetles and the palm trees
