I look out my window At the world I once owned And I see it's still spinning round But somewhere above me A light I once knew No longer shines through the clouds But that's somebody else's moon tonight Those're somebody else's stars They're no longer mine Cause somewhere tonight You're in somebody else's arms Remember the wishes We made in the night When dreams were supposed to come true Well I do cause you Put the stars in my eyes As you softly promised the moon That's somebody else's moon tonight They're no longer mine Cause somewhere tonight You're in somebody else's arms
