John Schneider - Hold Down The Moon Lyrics

Well it sure feels like I’m dyin’
As I watch you packin’ up your pretty things
I keep hopin’ that I’ll wake up
And find out this is all just some bad dream
I wish I could talk you out of your goodbye
And if I thought I stood a half a chance I’d try

But I’ll surrender to your wish and let you go
Knowin’ well there’s nothin’ else that I can do
I could no more hold you here
With my love or with my tears
Than I could try to hold down the moon

And it sure feels like rejection
Even though you say the problem isn’t me
You’re goin’ off in search of somethin’
That you think you can’t find unless you’re free
I already dread the nights I’ll spend alone
And the worst of it won’t hit me till you’re gone

But I’ll surrender to your wish and let you go
Knowin’ well there’s nothin’ else that I can do
Cause I could no more hold you here
With my love or with my tears
Than I could try to hold down the moon

Ooh I could no more hold you here
With my love or with my tears
Than I could try to hold down the moon
