Waits, Tom - I'll Shoot The Moon Lyrics






I'll shoot the moon
Right out of the sky
For you baby
I'll be the pennies
On your eyes
For you baby

I want to take you
Out to the fair
Here's a red rose
Ribbon for your hair

I'll shoot the moon
Right out of the sky
For you baby
I'll shoot the moon
For you

A vulture circles
Over your head
For you baby
I'll be the flowers
After you're dead
For you baby

I want to build
A nest in your hair
I want to kiss you
And never be there

I'll shoot the moon
Right out of the sky
For you baby
I'll shoot the moon
For you

  11. t.... ....

    jazzy waits is the best

    t.... ....

    any waits, including him reading a recipe in swahilli, or martian with guitar missing 1 1/2 strings and drum kicking back is better than 99.9% are listening to

  12. e.... g....

    Perfect

  13. i.... ....

    so smooth, the talky part

  14. M.... B....

    Does someone tried to check his number?

    M.... B....

    Its a different number in every song, I tried to call him but I just got a busy line....

    M.... B....

    IT was truly number years ago

    M.... B....

    Im not sure, but after the album road he had to change it

  15. M.... C....

    Nothing..nice video,baby....

  16. R.... ....

    Maybe we listen to the song from records that we actually bought? At least I hope so.

  17. d.... ....

  22. m.... ....

    What´s this?What´s this?
    OMG!Although I´m almost Waits´age,just last week I really discoverd him!Each day now,is like a dip in the blue ocean...it´s like having to see the rainbow every minute...it´s like being in love...all the fuc******* time...
    "I want to build a nest in your hair..." and then"I´ll be the flowers after you´re dead" are the highest form of a perfect poem...
    And you have the voice...

  23. h.... ....

    Most romantic, yet, creepy, stalkerish song ever. Only Tom Waits can pull this off.

  24. A.... J....

    Can't stop laughing :))

  25. B.... M....

    Tom waits is sick, man!..

  26. R.... ....

    @ZZombyWooff Not the first but Vice City :P

  27. N.... Y....

    @sclogse1 ...?

  28. s.... ....

    Love the sonics on this tune. Right up front. Bad As Me seems to have a harder edge to it...will everything pushed to the same volume. (Not all the tunes...but enough).

  29. s.... ....

    Lol.
    'You know you love me, baby.'
    Me: Yeah, I know. XD

  30. R.... ....

    I shot the moon, it changed size. xD

    I hope somebody else understands this or I'm going to look weird ;D

  31. e.... ....

    lol 2:00 - 2:30 reminds me of "The Shining" with Jack Nicholson for some reason xD he loved his family hahaah

  32. M.... ....

    @nuggetpopsicle I'm sure its not unintentional. This is from the Black Rider. Read up on what the play is about ....

  33. M.... S....

    i liked all the pics, but the last one made me laugh.

  34. l.... ....

    the only man I should love (by far)

  35. K.... ....

    The only man I ever loved <3

  36. L.... ....

    The thought and effort you put into the timing of picture placement in the video is really appreciated

  37. B.... ....

    Ah, Tom the late-night crooner....always adored that.
    The club would be condemned, the piano out of tune...
    The guests would be boozers, looking at the moon,
    And there is nothing that a sax or clarinet can't fix.

  38. B.... M....

    Where to the number reach to, man?

  39. f.... ....

    134 likes. Zero dislikes.

    That's how it's done!

  40. G.... ....

    Tom Waits is very likely the greatest man to ever live. My heart will rest with his music forever.

  41. E.... ....

    Cool pictures. Some ten years ago a theatre in Helsinki played The Black Rider. 'Twas a fine show.

    This also reminds me I lent the album to my mom ages ago. Gotta get it back and give it a listen.

  42. P.... S....

    Beautiful video. ♥

  43. h.... ....

  45. M.... ....

    For what I interpret as being a song about a stalker in love, this is absolutely beautiful. Thank you Tom.

  46. S.... ....
