I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Oh it's been too many times and I can't go back
Night bars, guitars, rundown motels like shacks
What it mounts up to I don't want it at all
Lost you and I need you to stay today
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
To be something, to be with you
I don't know where I'm going to
Love to love to love you
Oh every night and day
Half the time it could seem funny
The other half is just too sad
This west bound moon's they rise and fall
Lost you and I need you to stay
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
To be something, to be with you
I don't know where I'm going to
Lost you and I need you to stay, hey
Night bars, guitars, rundown motels like shacks
What it mounts up to I don't want it at all
Lost you and I need you to stay today
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
To be something, to be with you
I don't know where I'm going to
Love to love to love you
Oh every night and day
Half the time it could seem funny
The other half is just too sad
This west bound moon's they rise and fall
Lost you and I need you to stay
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
To be something, to be with you
I don't know where I'm going to
Lost you and I need you to stay, hey

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

UFO's lost love's, love on the road, who cares! What a song. My all time fav track by them...
"this west bound moon's only rise and fall"
beautiful song, his one chance at love and lost her. This song is so easy to relate to
This is from their Lights Out album, one of my all time favourite albums and dreadfully under-rated. I always loved this song. M. Schenker was in the first Scorpions line-up, IIRC they supported UFO on some gigs and they poached him. He went back for a short time after Mogg & he had a bust up, then went on to form MSG.
ufos lost love of their favorite soda
shmazian... shouldn't that be schmuck-ian ? This baby's just too young to remember the arena rockin' jam of UFO. Probably too shallow to get it in any generation. Schmuck-ians loss.
It means the movie SPUN. Billy Corgan does a cover of it towards the end of the film... one of the most beautiful songs I"ve ever heard.
I was just listening to the Spun-version and i also think it's amazing! I keep wondering who the female voice is though, i recognise billy's in an instance.
Amen bloodandsoil.I put it on a mix cd for a girl I liked once.Funny thing she was really young,and a black girl and she said she LOVED IT!!!!It's such a fantastic song,how can you not?UFO are a tremendously under rated band.Only true rock fans know about them.Two great facts;guitarist Michael Schencker is also the brother of Rudolph Schencker of The Scorpions(whom he later joined if my facts are correct) and bassist Pete Way is Steve Harris'(Iron Maiden) biggest influence.Hearing those two facts alone were enough to convince me to buy their Greatest Hits on cd and damn am I glad I did.This is my favorite song by them by the way.
One of UFO's greatest songs ever about lost love. Very tragic!!
For me what makes this song great are the instrumental passages. I mean when have you heard such uplifting and introspective hard rock that makes you want to face life head-on and re-evalutate all your problems with a clear mind?
