We were talking in the dark skies
About how people change
You told me that you've never found a love
That stayed the same
You asked me what I was thinking
What I was holding in
I told you that I never wanted to end up like they did
They say looking in the stars when they last saw the moon
Well that's just a little too far or a little untrue
I hope it's enough, it's the best I can do
I can't reach the real one so I'll make you
A paper moon
A paper moon
A paper moon
You can hang it on your cieling
Or keep it by the door
I know it doesn't shine as bright at night
But it's all yours
I promise that I'll love you
And it's a promise I can keep
I hope you always feel the most at home
When you're with me
They say looking in the stars when they last saw the moon
Well that's just a little too far or a little untrue
I hope it's enough, it's the best I can do
I can't reach the real one so I'll make you
A paper moon
A paper moon
A paper moon
