Lyrics

Mercy

[Verse 1]

The man in the moon has a thousand different faces

The man in the mood changes colors each day

He's watching us all, the big and the small

[Chorus]

(Oh can he see) Just you and me

Searching for my destiny

Mercy, Mercy

You've got to have pity on me

Have mercy on me

Mercy, Mercy

Wanna be free and happy

Have mercy on me

[Verse 2]

Do you believe we can travel to the future

Do you believe there's a man in the sky

We're making him sad, the good and the bad

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

I don't want to be just one of many faces

I want you looking at me

Sit down and take a look, put me into motion

Give me something to believe

[Outro]

Mercy, Mercy

You've got to have pity on me

Have mercy on me

Mercy, Mercy

You've got to have pity on me

Have mercy on me

Mercy, Mercy

You've got to have pity on me

Have mercy on me

Mercy, Mercy

You've got to have pity on me

Have mercy on me
