  • When I came up from out of the meat-locker
    The city was gone
    The sky's full of lights
    The snow provides a silent cover

    In Moonland, under the stars
    Under the snow and I followed this car
    And I followed that car, through the sand
    Through the snow, I turn on the radio
    I listen to the DJ, and it must feel nice (it must feel nice)

    It must feel nice to know, that somebody needs you
    And everything moves slow
    Under the stars, under the ash, through the sand
    And the night drifts in, the snow provides a silent cover
    And I'm not your favorite lover, I turn on the radio
    And it must feel nice (it must feel nice)

    Oh very very nice to know, that somebody needs you
    And the chilly winds blow
    Under the snow, under the stars
    The whispering DJ on the radio
    The whispering DJ on the radio
    I'm not your favorite lover
    I'm not your favorite lover

    And it must feel nice (it must feel nice)
    To leave no trace (no trace at all)
    But somebody needs you, and that somebody is me baby
    Under the stars, under the snow
    Your eyes were closed
    You were playing with the buttons on your coat
    In the back of that car
    In Moonland, under the stars
    In Moonland, and I followed that car Writer/s: Jim Sclavunos, Martyn Casey, Nicholas Cave, Warren Ellis
