Canyon Moon

Harry Styles

You gotta see it to believe it

Sky never looked so blue

So hard to leave it

That’s what I always do

So I keep thinking back to

A time under the canyon moon

The world’s happy waiting

Doors yellow, broken, blue

I heard Jenny saying

“Go get the kids from school”

And I keep thinking back to

A time under the canyon moon

I’ll be gone too long from you

Staring at the ceiling

Two weeks and I’ll be home

Carry the feeling

Through Paris, all through Rome

And I’m still thinking back to

A time under the canyon moon

I’m going, oh I’m going

I’m going, oh I’m going

I’m going, oh I’m going home

I’m going, oh I’m going

I’m going, oh I’m going

I’m going, oh I’m going home

Quick pause in conversation

She plays songs I’ve never heard

An old lover’s hippie music

Pretends not to know the words

And I keep thinking back to

A time under the canyon moon

I’ll be gone too long from you

I’m going, oh I’m going

I’m going, oh I’m going

I’m going, oh I’m going home

Background

“Canyon Moon,” from the singer’s second album “Fine Line,” is rooted in the Laurel Canyon sound, making reference to a “Jenny.” “She plays songs I’ve never heard/An old lover’s hippie music,” Styles sings, while sadly missing a lady back in Los Angeles during his European tours.
