Lyrics:

And I may as well wish for the moon in handI own this river, I own this townAll of its climbers and its wino's slidi
ng downBut I can't own her and I never willNo I can't own her and that's a bitter pillTaken with rain'Til the gutter shine
s like the swirling skyLike the swirling skyI've got all morning, I've got all yearIt's down in my pocket with the daylight
folded thereBut I can't own her and I never willNo I can't own her and that's a bitter pillTaken with rainHow I'd wash he
r hair like the swirling skyLike the swirling skyAnd when I say I can't own herI don't mean to buy herIt's nothing at all
to do with moneyI simply want her in my arms forever more.Is that an odd request?Is that something so funny?And I may as w
ell wish for the moon in handYes there's more chance of that coming trueBut I can't own her and I never willNo I can't own
her and that's a bitter pillSo I can't own her (Of all the things you've got the thing you want the most is her)And I never
will (And she's the one thing that you just can't have)No I can't own her (Of all the things you've got the thing you want the
most is her)And that's a bitter pill (And she's the one thing that you just can't have)Taken with rainWhich I swallow dow
n with the swirling skyWith the swirling skyBut I can't own herAnd I may as well wish for the moon in handNo I can't own h
erYes there's more chance of that coming true
