The night we stole the moon, a pirate's paradise The light along the ocean was in your eyes It ended all too soon, it started suddenly The bridge was almost opened when we arrived
And when I thought I was lost you carried me across Laughing through the fallout zone You touched me in a way I'd never known And in the salt-scented air I followed you there You taught me everything I know I'm going down again... South Ferry Road
We found a place to land, a space-age hideaway Safe inside the shelter, just you and I The night we stole the moon you gave it back to me The light along the ocean was our good-bye
But even still, now and then, I remember you when Laughing all the way back home You touched me in a way I've never known And all the others remain just faces in a game Remind me of a place I know I'm going down again... South Ferry Road
