Bruno Mars: Talking to the Moon Meaning

Talking to the Moon Lyrics

I know you're somewhere out there
Somewhere far away
I want you back
I want you back
My neighbours think
I'm crazy
But they don't understand
You're all I have
You're all I have

[Chorus:]
At night when the stars
light up my room
I...

   I think its about someone he can't be with anymore. I don't think it's about his mother because his mother died in 2013. And this song is made in 2010. So probably a break up or something.

   It's a very emotional song, that I honestly fell in love with the first time I heard it because I relate to is so much. My grandpa passed away last may, I talk to the moon hoping he can hear me and is talking back. I really miss him, and it hurts I didn't get to say goodbye. I wasn't able to see him for over 8 years. But the day he passed away my older sister called me and told me the news, though I already knew he wasn't doing too well. He was a great man, i'll never forget him.

   This song could be about missing somebody that meant a lot to you and it's okay, I listen to this song and I remember of my ex boyfriend. I don't know why he ran away but I keep hoping for him to come back, he says things like me not needing someone like him and me deserving better. Those words kinda hurt, however, I think that the phrase "Trynna get to you" means like waiting, in my honest opinion.

   This song reminds me of my guinea pig who passed away when I was 10. I still miss her so much and hope she hears me when I tell her I love her. This song is beautiful and makes me cry so much

   Whether it is about his mother or not, I believe this could be about a woman who he loved but who is forced to be apart from because of uncontrollable forces. I met a man that I fell deeply inlove with but I’m unable to be with him because he lives in another country. I wasn’t able to talk to him for over a year so I would watch the moon and wonder if he was looking at it too. when I heard this song, I related to it in the sense that Bruno was going through something similar to what I was/am going thru. It could be about his mother, but I choose to believe that I am not the only person going through this.

    I think he is talking about someone he truly loved, and wish to talk to but he can't then he's sitting there talking to the moon.

    I definitely believe it's about some who broke up with him. He thought he moved on but then he realized he still cared for. So instead of him texting or calling, he talks to the moon wishing she talks to the moon about him too.

    I think it's about someone who passed away and when it says "At night when the stars
    Light up my room
    I sit by myself
    Talking to the moon
    Tryin' to get to you
    In hopes you're on
    The other side
    Talking to me too
    Or am I a fool
    Who sits alone
    Talking to the moon" I thin it means he is trying to talk to whoever passed and he doesn't know if their answering him or can hear him talking to them.
