Shame on the Moon Lyrics

Cover art for Shame on the Moon lyrics by Bob Seger

This song is SEDUCTIVE, but I'm still trying to figure it out. The first part seems to intimate that men have problems showing all of their feelings publicly, but during/after sex is one place where they can do it. That is one motivation for them to be promiscuous/seek one-night stands. The "once inside a woman's heart" refers to a relationship with a woman. It can be heavenly, but also fraught with issues/problems, and not all men can deal with it, so one-night stands can be simpler. Anonymity/strangers can be easier to deal with, so long if a few more sensitive issues don't come up. All in all, I feel the writer is trying to say that people have one-night stands/casual sex for a variety of complicated reasons, yet blame it on being caught up in the moment, too much to drink, etc. Yeah, it's all the moon's fault.
