Halo 'Round the Moon

Steve Earle

There's a halo 'round the moon 
So I know it ain't to blame 
Cause I knew what love could do 
But I loved her just the same 
Then I let her slip away 
Now I'm all alone and blue 
That's the price I got to pay 
There's a halo 'round the moon 

There's a ghost that haunts this town 
Just ask anyone you see 
He drags his chain around 
And no spell can set him free 
And he looks a lot like me 
And if you ask him why he's bound 
He'll just say he lost the key 
There's a ghost that haunts this town 

There's no shelter from the storm 
Without the lightnin' and the rain 
And love would hold no charm 
If it wasn't for the pain 
And it's always been that way 
No matter what you do 
No matter what you say 
There's a halo 'round the moon
