Patty Lee Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Hawkeye2008 

Cover art for Patty Lee lyrics by Les Savy Fav

just got a note from Tim Harrington - the song has nothing to do with the poem, just an odd coincidence that there are similarities there

anyone out there have any ideas on this song's meaning? clearly, the moon is a key element, but I must say it almost seems the lyrics are intentionally open-ended towards the end
