Grapefruit moon, one star shining, shining down on me
Heard that tune, and now I'm pining, honey, can't you see?
Every time I hear that melody, well, something breaks inside
Grapefruit moon, one star shining, can't turn back the tide
Never had no destination, could not get across
You became my inspiration, oh but what the cost
And every time I hear that melody something breaks inside
Grapefruit moon, one star shining is more than I can hide
Now I'm smoking cigarettes and I strive for purity
Then I slip just like the stars into obscurity
Every time I hear that melody it puts me up a tree
Grapefruit moon, one star shining, is all that I can see

'Closing time' is Waits' most songlike album. Which is why I like it best. Speaking of rare gems...
