They say the moon is the same size whether it's up or down If it takes up half your outstretched finger It'll be the same 6 hours later, when you're still there, measuring But i, i, need perspective on this Lying here, where we used to lay It sure doesn't look the same, up there all alone When you don't have nothing left to compare it to It's just me and you But i, i, need perspective on you I, i... you know i do. I need to be alone, i need to be without you There's all kinds of alone, i need to be without you I need to be without you The moon doesn't grow, i'll tell you how i know I stayed up all night, with me eyes held tight Didn't go inside until it got light And i watched it die But i, i, need perspective on us I, i... you know i do. I need to be alone, i need to be without you There's all kinds of alone, i need to be without you I need to be without you
