I've been reading up on magazines

Lately, I've been trying not to lie

Now I know the difference

Between life and a movie screen

But that should come as no surprise

I've been dabbling in decency

Since then my world has opened wide

Now the grip is looser but I'm not quite free

I'll get there when I get you off of my mind

'Cause I may still find time to cry

But I've got moonbeams in my eyes

I've been listening to my old LPs

And they all sound so sad, I used to dread

Spending nights like these

But now they don't feel that bad

'Cause I may still find time to cry

But I've got moonbeams in my eyes

I've been thinking in terms of a grander scheme

I've been thinking about rhythm and rhyme

I've stopped blaming, a lack of honesty

I've started to forget about wasted time

'Cause I may still find time to cry

But I've got moonbeams in my eyes

Moonbeams in my eyes
