Moonlight Grey
© 2005 kate laurel smith, kate laurel publishing/ASCAP

Twenty years ?til she?s moonlight grey
For now you hold her, she?s yours ?til the break of day
But what?ll you do when the morning comes and you
Have to choose with the rising of the sun?

No lines on her pretty white face, she?s the
Lastest fashion that time will soon replace
Check your headlines, there?s someone new and
Though you haven?t met her, you?re sure to find out soon

You?re no knight on your big black horse
You take your big risks, you let ?em run their course
And the bed is cool where you let her sleep
You left her wrapped up in her empty sheets

Ain?t no lifetime gonna pass you by
You?re runnin? wild ?til the day you die and
Into the moonlight grey you?re gonna fly
But there ain?t nobody gonna see you wave goodbye
No there ain?t nobody gonna see you wave goodbye

Reckless livin? gonna bleed you dry
But there?s nothin? givin? though another woman try
You?ll kiss her lips and you?ll lead her on
But when it comes to lovin? her, you?re leaving, yeah
You?re long gone
You?re already long gone

And no bottle gonna bring you home
When you?ve nothing left and you?re on your own
All your fancy freedom has its price to pay
When your lonely grave?s just a mile away

Ain?t no lifetime gonna pass you by
You?re runnin? wild ?til the day you die and
Into the moonlight grey you?re gonna fly
But there ain?t nobody gonna see you wave goodbye
No there ain?t nobody gonna see you wave goodbye

Twenty years ?til she?s moonlight grey?
