Kenny White - Shoot The Moon текст песни

I keep you under wraps
Like I was CIA
and you were some covert mark
There's nothing as cold
As the light of day
When you're standing in the dark
You can have them hold your mail
You can turn the ringer off
Pull the sheets over your head
Sooner or later you'll stop shooting yourself
and shoot the moon instead

Never slowing down as Hudson curves around Horatio
Cabs are in a hurry for a fare
But summer being what it is,
and this night's a beauty
Folks just want to get a little air
The harder I listen, the less I hear
The more I search, the less I find
But it feels like love is one part lightning
and two parts making up your mind

Start up the Chrysler, point it East
Let's see how fast this baby goes
You know it's often said
The one you need the least
Is the one you want the most

I'm getting tired of coming close
tired of the chances I don't take
The thing about the heart that hurts the most
Is when you just can't feel it break

I swear when I drink and
I'm cursed when I don't and
Like everyone, I want to be rich
I guess it would be to stay in love,
yeah, that's it…If I had one wish
