Jealous of the Moon
CHRIS THILE, GARY LOURIS, GARY MICHAEL LOURIS
You're trying on a brand new dress
But you haven't worn the old one yet
You've come too far to turn around now
Your giving up the good fight
When you're as strong as anyone
You're back where you started from
You're staring down the stars
Jealous of the moon
You wish you could fly
But you're staying where you are
There's nothing you can do
If you're too scared to try
You drag your pretty head around
Swearing you're gonna drown
With a beautiful sigh in a river of lies
Why don't you call me
I could save you
Together we'll find a god we can pray to
That will take you by the hand
I hate to see a friend of mine
Laughing out loud when she's crying inside
But you've got your pride
