Jaymes Young – Moondust lyrics

Jaymes Young – Moondust lyrics

"I'm building this house on the moon"
"Like a lost astronaut"
"Looking at you, like a star"
"From the place the world forgot"

"And there's nothing that I can do"
"Except bury my love for you"

"The brightness of the sun"
"Will give me just enough to bury my love"
"In the moondust"
"I long to hear your voice"
"But still I make the choice to bury my love"
"In the moondust"

"Nothing can breathe in the space"
"Colder than the darkest sea"
"I have dreams about the days"
"Driving through your sunset breeze"

"But the first thing that I will do"
"Is bury my love for you"

"The brightness of the sun"
"Will give me just enough to bury my love"
"In the moondust"
"I long to hear your voice"
"But still I make the choice to bury my love"
"In the moondust"

"I'm a castaway"
"And men reap what they sow"
"And I say what I know to be true"
"Yeah, I'm living far away"
"On the face of the moon"
"I've buried my love to give the world to you"

"The brightness of the sun"
"Will give me just enough to bury my love"
"In the moondust"
"I long to hear your voice"
"But still I've made the choice to bury my love"
"In the moondust"

"I buried my love"
"In the moondust, yeah"

I think it's about a lost lover who loved space, and their love crumbled, and he's saying that he'll never forget her, and he's putting their love in the place she loved most. So she'll hopefully see it again and remember all the past they had. Then he wants to see her again, one last time, and hear her voice again, which is impossible.

(I'm from Germany) they translated it into German like this: He loves someone, but he/she don't feel the same. So He let her/him go. He remembers the good times they've had, but finally accepted that he never gets the same feeling from his love so he gave up his hopes and dreams -> he buried his love

As someone pointed out on the YouTube video, Moondust is a strong drug. So I make this out to be him drowning out his sorrow and sadness through being in a high. This makes sense, because Jaymes says how he still makes the choice to “bury my love, in the Moondust”. If you think otherwise, then let me know what you think. Also, I found this song based off of a Minecraft parody :)
