The Head and the Heart – These Days Are Numbered Lyrics 12 years ago
The first verse: Be optimistic about everything, because life is short. Live in the moment. At the same time, live in the moment because life is too short.

The second verse: It reminds me of a one night stand, or a relationship where the love is needed.

The third verse: The moon is always there, and doesn't put out much to us. Always standing behind us. It's not like the sun, or natural weather, where it's a force. My interpretation is that a silent, always there, love is what is to be strived for. We're never mad at the moon, it's not in our lives generally, it doesn't effect us, but when we see it, we admire it.

Overall, this song to me is about either a reoccuring one night stand or a long term love that is not posessive, where the love is there, and is needed but the person doesn't need or want the 'sun and rain' sort of love. They have enough going on in their daily live.

Beautiful song. I'm surprised there's not more interpretations.
