Shoot The Moon

(album: Farewell To Paradise - 1973)

Just shoot the moon, just shoot the moon
How do you know if you don't try what you can do
Just shoot the moon

Well, subject matter, one tormented mind
Just won't let no sleeping dog lie
Sunny day can't seem to budge a smile
Faking just won't make it though I try

Just shoot the moon, just shoot the moon
How do you know if you don't try what you can do
Just shoot the moon

Well, it's not hard but it's not easy to live from day to day
When the sky up above you has turned from blue to gray

Well, it's not hard but it's not easy to live from day to day
When the sky up above you has turned from blue to gray

Funny feeling hope it doesn't last
Been this way too long for me to laugh
Holy Jesus things have all gone wrong
Everything is spinning way too fast

Just shoot the moon, just shoot the moon
How do you know if you don't try what you can do
Just shoot the moon
