Grapefruit moon one star shining shining down on me 
Heard that tune and now I'm pining honey can't you see 
'Cause every time I hear that melody well something breaks inside 
And the 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 a cost 
'Cause every time I hear that melody well something breaks inside 
And the grapefruit moon one star shining is more than I can hide 
Now I'm smoking cigarettes and I strive for purity 
And I slip just like the stars into obscurity 
'Cause every time I hear that melody well puts me up a tree 
And the grapefruit moon one star shining is all that I can see
