Lyrics:

As I sit here softly strumming
Underneath a lemon moon
In my heart I feel you coming
It's you my girl

Looking for the holy grail
Underneath the winter's skin
I'm a tuber soft and pale
To my girl

Looking for LaCherité
LaShea wont do, only LaCherité
Looking for LaCherité
LaShea won't do, must have LaCherité

I enjoyed you,but I couldn't see
That you were a person, a person like me
And I just can't cry
So I fall like rain
Inside

Standing naked by the portal
With the orange moon ahead
Moon's forever, we are mortal
I wish I could be
Twenty-three
I could waste time
I could waste time

Looking for LaCherité
LaShea wont do, only LaCherité
Looking for LaCherité
LaShea won't do, must have LaCherité

In my end is my beginning
Only if your aim is true
From your grave your skull is grinning
Back at you

As I sit here softly strumming
Underneath a lemon moon
In my heart I feel you coming
It's you my girl

Looking for LaCherité
LaShea won't do, must have LaCherité
Looking for LaCherité
LaShea won't do
Only a dream can love you this way
Only a dream can love you this way

And I just can't cry, so I fall like rain
Inside
