Out past silver city Racing through the night Steller regions skipping Me, I'm just on that high If I knew now what I knew then With that desert in my eyes There I might go missin' You're a lot like me inside Sittin' on a paper moon Like you own the night itself Take your time I hope you find your truth And never come back down to earth Sittin' on a paper moon Like you own the night itself Take your time I hope you find your truth And never come back down to earth Its been nearly twеnty years Since I knew thosе bright eyes The sky was a shade bluer The sunset on fire Down in New Mexico There I knew I got it right But the mind just has to wander And again i'm here tonight Sittin' on a paper moon Like you own the night itself Take your time I hope you find your truth And never come back down to earth Sittin' on a paper moon Like you own the night itself Take your time I hope you find your truth And never come back down to earth Sittin' on a paper moon Sittin' on a paper moon Sittin' on a paper moon Like you own the night itself Take your time I hope you find your truth And never come back down to earth
