Lyrics
Yemaya when you’re sad I can’t take it
You see the light in me yet I feel I’m failing you
There’s nothing I’d like more than to be the one you look up to
But look at me, now look at you
You’re bright and alive with a waiting world ahead of you
And it’s true I’ll never walk on the moon
Oh I’m no Neil Armstrong
No, I’m no Neil Armstrong
Yemaya when you’re down I can’t take it
You see the fight in me yet I think I’m failing you
One day I’ll be less of a vacuous vessel
And my mind won’t be quite as much of a mess
You’re gonna light up every doorway
and every room
And it’s true I’ll never walk on the moon
Oh I’m no Neil Armstrong
No, I’m no Neil Armstrong
I’ll see you in the funny papers, I’ll hear you laughin’ in my mind
And I won’t forget your sweet face, not in all of my time
Yemaya maybe I’ll amount to something
You can look up to
But it’s true that I’ll never walk on the moon
