LYRICS

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, no, I don't want it
You can take it all
I'll put my money where my mouth is
Put your suitcase in the hall
[Verse 2]
Oh, you robbed me blind
Of what little hope remained
You put a gun to my head
A bullet through my brain
[Verse 3]
You can shoot down the moon
Some things never change
We can build a bridge between us
But the empty space remains
[Verse 4]
You can shoot down the moon
Some things never change
We can build a bridge between us
But the empty space remains
[Verse 5]
Just as long as you're around
We live on borrowed time
I'll put my money where my mouth is
You're guilty at the scene of the crime
[Verse 6]
I'll never say more than I need
The mystery runs deep
The dangers buried below
The secrets that you keep
[Verse 7]
You can shoot down the moon
Some things never change
We can build a bridge between us
But the empty space remains
[Verse 8]
You can shoot down the moon
Some things never change
We can build a bridge between us
But the empty space remains
[Verse 9]
You can shoot down the moon
Oh, some things never change
We can build a bridge between us
But the empty space remains
[Verse 10]
You can shoot down the moon, oh
Some things never change
We can build a bridge between us
But the empty space remains
[Verse 11]
You can shoot down the moon
