Silver Moon Lyrics

Barks in the dark of a summertime sight
Oh, what a silver moon
Fist full of figs, and a rusty flashlight
Just dippin' along like a broken down kite

Hey, oh, what a silver moon
Sings by the light of her room
And the song is the shape of a strange balloon
Ooooooon...., silver moon

Empty the rag from a dirty glass jar
Oh, what a silver moon
We sit for a bit in a battle-cracked car
While her ice prob'ly was a single bad star

Oh, what a silver moon
Her father would be coming soon
And his hand swiftly split the clasp in two
Oooooooh...., silver moon
Oooooooh...., silver moon

We walk through the park in a summertime storm
Strangely amazed and a little bit warm
Fresh from the flash of a threshing room floor

Oh, what a silver moon
Her father would be coming soon
And the song is the shape of a strange balloon
Oooooooh...., silver moon
Oooooooh...., silver moon
Oooooooh...., silver moon

Silver moon
My silver moon
Silver moon

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
