Luna

Tom Petty

White light cut a scar in the sky
Thin line of silver
Night was all clouded with dreams
Wind made me shiver
Black and yellow pools of light
Outside my window
Luna come to me tonight
I am a prisoner
Luna glide down from the moon

Clouds are all silver and black
Floating around me
Luna come into my eyes
Luna surround me
With black and yellow pools of light
Fall by my window
Luna come to me tonight
I am a prisoner
Luna glide down from the moon

Clouds are all silver and black
Floating around me
Luna come into my eyes
Luna surround me
With black and yellow pools of light
Outside my window
Luna come to me tonight
I am a prisoner
Luna glide down from the moon

    Ok 13 years later ..just saw Petty cover band that took me back to the real thing..Oakland mid 70s I think..God it was good .Tom sat stage right on keyboard..small backup band , and I heard for the very first time the magical Luna..it had to be about a drug and not a woman..Luna ..the melody captivating, and lyrics I believe, a metaphorical love that took him away..fly me to the moon..We miss you Tom..we loved you Tom. I cried at your concert..heartwrenching .thank you...Marcia in Modesto

Moyet later described how her song "Goodbye 70's" had been inspired by her disillusionment with how the late-1970s punk scene had turned out, saying, "'Goodbye 70's' is about punk and not caring how you were dressed, and then I discovered that so many of my friends that I'd thought it all really meant something to just saw it as another trend... That's what 'Goodbye 70's' was all about, about how sour the whole thing became."
