Jo Hikk – Shame On The Moon lyrics

We were bored and seventeen
Empty pockets full of dreams and nowhere to go
She was eager, I was proud
Trace of passion in her eyes, one would never know
Took her mama's cigarettes, her daddy's vintage corvette and found a desert road
Our first moment of freedom sparked a fire between us
That raged out of control

Shame on the moon
For shining so bright
For hanging so high
For making our hearts run wild and free
We lost our innocence that night
In a haze of sweat and perfume
Shame on the moon

We got married in bliss with our only guest due in late July
We were broke and scared
We really didn't have a prayer but we had to try
Yes her life said hello, squeezed her steady and slow 'til she said goodbye
She moved in with her sister
Man, I'm really gonna miss her
Sometimes I curse the midnight sky

Shame on the moon
For shining so bright
For hanging so high
For making our hearts run wild and free
We lost our innocence that night
In a haze of sweat and perfume
Shame on the moon

I can't change the choices I made
Sometimes on a lonely night I need someone to blame

Shame on the moon
For shining so bright
For hanging so high
For making our hearts run wild and free

Life can change in one night
By the choices that we choose
Shame on the moon
Shame on the moon

We were bored and seventeen
Empty pockets full of dreams and nowhere to go
