Cover art for August Moon lyrics by Gregory and the Hawk

His smile disappears (symbolizing the momentary bliss in their relationship) New start–irrationally positive outlook/expectations Risky but satisfying outlook–intuition that things will not turn out well Her depression in the relationship presents familiar nourishment because of its constant presence A routine in which she is in a melancholy relationship Her repeated emotional undoing is eating at her again and again
