Hang The Moon Lyrics - Bombshell - Smash Cast

If our lives were a movie 

I'd know what to do 

I'd write every scene with my heart 

An RKO picture that stars me and you 

And this time I'd learn my part 

I'd paint you some scenery 

We'd sing, and we'd dance 

From morning 'til late afternoon 

And when that scene is done 

Then I'd take down the sun 

And for you darling, I'll hang the moon 

We'd wake up to sunshine 

Like lights on a set 

You'd reach out and there'd be my hand 

All day there'd be music, a perfect duet 

That flows from the white baby grand 

At night when you're frightened 

I'd play you to sleep 

That melody from Clair de Lune 

And to fill up the sky 

Past the clouds, I would fly 

And for you darling, I'll hang the moon 

Hang the moon forever 

So you'd never fear the darkness 

The darkness I've known 

Moon protect Norma Jean 

So that she'll never be alone 

Never alone 

If our lives were a movie 

Then you'd be the star 

'Cause now I know the role I should play 

To applaud all you do 

All the things that you are 

And just be there on opening day 

I know in the past 

That the lines were all wrong 

And the music was never in tune 

But the wish that I make 

Is for just one more take 

Because then darling 

I'll hang the moon 

I'll hang the moon above you 

So you'll never fear the darkness 

The darkness of night 

Then you'll know I love you 

Each time that you feel the light 

Feel the light 

If our lives were a movie 

Then I'd cut away 

All the moments when I wasn't there 

The scenes that are happy 

Are all that will stay 

The rest will dissolve into air 

As the final reel ends 

We might both shed a tear 

For the ending is coming up soon 

But when the screen fades to black 

We can smile and look back 

And for you darling I'll hang the moon
