Shot the Moon Songtext
von Mexico City Blondes

In the thick of the narrows I′m sharpening arrows
I try to leave it behind
But I never could share what I couldn't help care for
You hide where it′s dark and it's wide

I shot the moon
In the middle of June
I shot the moon
Not a minute too soon


Grace it is near me in the very next clearing
I might get there in time
I'm hoping my heroes aren′t all smoke and mirrors
Wise guy you′d better think twice

I shot the moon
In the middle of June
I shot the moon
Not a minute too soon

It's threating Autumn and I sink to the bottom
White light in a deep blue sky
It′s always harder when you give up your armour
Capsize your head full of lies


I shot the moon
In the middle of June
I shot the moon
Not a minute too soon
