The Thompson Twins were an English New Wave/pop band normally associated with the 1980s. The band formed in April of 1977, and disbanded in May of 1993. Despite their constantly-misleading name, the Twins were in fact a trio, and consisted of Tom Bailey (vocals), Alannah Currie (synth) and Joe Leeway (guitar). Leeway would eventually leave the group in the late 80s. Massively popular in the mid 1980s, the band scored a string of hits in the UK, broke into the USA and Canada and enjoyed huge popularity around the globe.

Savage Moon Lyrics
Thompson Twins
The pressure is on - the wolf is at the door
All the ghosts that haunt my life are screaming out for more
I try to fight them
But I just can't win
I'm always on the outsied
Always tryin' to get in
Tell me again of what love can bring oh-oh
(chorus)
I was touched by a savage moon
I was kissed by a burning sky
I can run away but there's nowhere to hide
I'll be running 'til the day I die
Well there's a civil war that's raging
Raging in my soul
C'mon hold me close
Save me from the cold
If you take a chance
I'll take one too
It won't be that hard
When we've got nothing to lose
Weave me a tale where love is true
CHORUS
If I could believe in fairytales
A life of happy endings that would never ever fail
Tell me a story where love is true
CHORUS
