I used to wake and run with the moon

I lived like a rake and a young man

I covered my lovers with flowers and wounds

My laughter, the Devil would frighten



The sun, she would come and beat me back down

But every cruel day had its nightfall

I'd welcome the stars with wine and guitars

Full of fire and forgetful



My body was sharp, the dark air clean

And outrage my joyful companion

Whisperin' women, how sweet did they seem

Kneelin' for me to command them

Except for the turnin' of night into day

And the turnin' of day into cursin'
