Shy Of The Moon Lyrics

Pretty little girl on the side of the road Yellow hair in a yellow bow, little thumb sticking in the exit lane Two packs of smokes and a candy cane Women hips, baby lips, a Hallelujah book in the back of a pillow-slip
If she gets out of here too soon She'll run fast by the shy of the moon
She's been havin' the same old dreams Lullabies and pale blue skies, fallen asleep beneath the stars Orion aims and shoots his arrows, oh, so far, aims 'em hard He shoots the moon and takes her as his own reward
If she's gonna see those stars too soon She'll run fast by the shy of the moon
If she found out so long ago, she wants more than all she knows River ends right as she goes Water breaks and she's gone down in the undertow She's below, I'll stand tall and hold up high my mistletoe
She's gonna shine just like brand new She'll take my hand and we'll run by the shy of the moon
