[Verse 1: Stephin Merritt]
With an ivory pipe and a cummerbund
In the dead of night on the Autobahn
With a lonely girl on the radio
And the dreaming moon

[Verse 2]
We were young and in love in a burning town
But the fire went out, I'm alone again now
And I finally know how cool to be cold
With the dreaming moon

[Verse 3]
I'll begin again with another new name
And a whole new life full of fortune and fame
But in the hundredth year, I'll be right back here
With the dreaming moon

[Outro]
The dreaming moon
The dreaming moon
The dreaming moon
The dreaming moon
