The Moon Cave — Lyrics

Artist: Gorillaz

Album: The Mountain


Mm Love me, love me, love me, love me Ah Love me, love me, love me, love me Watching, watching Love me, love me, love me, love me Love me, love me To the Moon Cave Where I bought my tears Lit the lantern On my childhood fears You must wash all your perfume from your body (In the Moon Cave) If you're leaving (If you're leaving) Don't make it harder than it is Let me know (Let me know) So I can say goodbye (In the Moon Cave) You must wash all your perfume from your body (In the Moon Cave) Ooh, the things I swore I'd never become (In the Moon Cave) At the vastness of the river (In the Moon Cave) In the cradled light, they've done me You must wash all your perfume from your body (In the Moon Cave) Why am I taking so long? Why is my voice not strong now? (In the Moon Cave) It's been cut You will never recognise me again Have you travelled on a moonbeam? You must wash all your perfume from your body (In the Moon Cave) Ooh, the things I swore I'd never become And at the vastness of the river In the cradled light, they've done me, but Ooh, I need, I need a better bond with you, oh But that's if forever's coming Where the atoms gone with you? Things I swore I'd never become Yes, please Like a broken man Grinning beginnings Who realised what he has done One more time from the top Yo, I can— like a butterfly, gimme any— (float, topic) I'ma let it slide, bet you I'ma— like I'm in the sky, look at how I— (float, drop it) When I let the ideas just— up high like a new hot— good to be the goat (float, topic) Only way I— is to treat it like it's gossip and— yeah, watch this (float, drop it) Yo, I can— like no other god, gimme any— (float, topic) I'ma let it ride, bet you I'ma— like I've been a vibe, I'ma just— yeah, check it (float, drop it) Yo, I get telescopic for profit, when I float topic to topic Is it hip hop? Is it Gothic? Can it fit into the corner pocket? Is it hovering above the surface? Is the pain where the megahertz is? Where the masjid, where the church is? Are the last days where the earth is? It's a movie, listen to me They have given the permission to me to move like Mr. Halloumi If I leave here, don't pursue me Let me float topic to topic, from the posh tip to the mosh pit To the ghosts watching the folks clockin' the most popular optics Spread it all round, from the small town to the empires, finna fall down From the energy that brung the wall down, or the mothership gon' call down like Orson The heat gon' be scorching The beat gon' need voices that sound downright awesome What downtown like, different than the sounds y'all like Lemme break it down for 'em like Uh, hold up Maybe I should just wait, just a little bit Forgetting bothers me
