Moon is High is written by Elvis Costello and it was released as a single by Scarlett O'Connor and Avery Barkley who performed it in the Season One finale I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive.
They sing it as Juliette sits in the funeral home crying over her mother's body.
Lyrics[]
Avery:
The moon is high
Scarlett:
It's not the only one
Avery:
I'm a lone wolf
And I'm prowling
Scarlett:
So shine a light on me
Avery:
Down from your balcony
Scarlett:
You'll send me spinning
Avery:
And you'll find me howling
I'm under your window
Scarlett:
My shades are drawn tight
Avery:
He's up there with you
Scarlett:
He's been up here all night
Avery:
Do you favor a man
When he breaks down and begs?
Scarlett:
Or a boy with his tail
Dragging between his legs
Avery and Scarlett:
I feel vicious and sly
And the moon is high
Avery:
Now the sky's full of rain
Scarlett:
And I'm starting to wane
Avery:
And I wanna tear a strip from the firmament
Scarlett:
I dream you're near
Avery:
Whisper endearments
Scarlett:
If I could take that full moon
And make it more permanent
Avery:
I'm close to your window
Are you tired of him now?
Scarlett:
Is your light in the gutter
And done all you'll allow?
Avery:
Do you favor a man
When he breaks down and pleads?
Scarlett:
Or a boy with his tail
Dragging whenever you lead
Avery and Scarlett:
Now I'm in full cry
And the moon is high
Now I'm in full cry
And I want to tear a strip from the firmament
Howling for your love
I'm howling for your love
I'm howling for your love
