[Verse 1]
Well, in the morning we'll have to pretend again, smiling
You'll be my good friend again, hold me
The light comes a-creeping in the morning, the curtain will rise again
I know, I know, cause I've done this one before
[Verse 2]
Well, it's the end there, just the beginning, and I'm here
Caught in the middle, loving you comes
As easy as breathing, loving you comes when everyone's leaving
I know, I know, cause I've done this one before
[Chorus]
I know, I know
Why must it be so?
Why ask for the moon?
[Verse 3]
Well, there's just so much, to want to be with her
Where was I when she was in trouble? Now I'm here and
Too late, as usual in the morning
Well, she'll be returning
I know, I know, because I've read this one before
[Chorus]
I know, I know
Why must it be so?
Why ask for the moon?
