Catch The Moon Lyrics

Can you hear him whistling a little tune
It's about him trying to catch the moon
He's waiting for his father, he'll be coming home soon
He's waiting for his mother this afternoon

He can't hear what they say, he don't know what they want
so he runs away 'cause he fears the gun
He waited in vain it was something they've done
He don't know what it is but he knows he's alone

Some put their trust in the east, some put their trust in the west
Some put their trust in the bomb, some put their trust in their mums
Some put their trust in a God, some put their money in a bank
Some put their faith in the stars, some put their trust in the guitar

Killing has no reason, killing has no soul
Killing has no right, killing has no goal
Now you might think it's easy, to cross into his mind
But his life is real now like a picture in his eyes

Some put their trust in the east, some put their trust in the west
Some put their trust in the bomb, some put their trust in their mums
Some put their trust in a God, some put their money in a bank
Some put their faith in the stars, some put their trust in the guitar

Can you hear him whistling a little tune
It's about him trying to catch the moon
He's waiting for his father, he'll be coming home soon
He's waiting for his mother this afternoon

Some put their trust in the east, some put their trust in the west
Some put their trust in the bomb, some put their trust in their mums
Some put their trust in politicians, some put their trust in the bottle

Some put a gun to their heads, some put their trust in the dead
Some put their trust in a God, some put their money in a bank
Some put their faith in the stars, some put their trust in the guitar

Some put their trust in the east, some put their trust in the west
Some put their trust in the bomb, some put their trust in their mums
Some put their trust in a God, some put their money in a bank
Some put their faith in the stars, some put their trust in the guitar

Can you hear him whistling a little tune
It's about him trying to catch the moon
