The Lonely Moon

I am lonely like the moon

You are far away as the earth

Now you say I light your thoughts

Night after night

Soon you forget



We are drifting in this dance

I can feel you circle my heart

Keeping such a graceful distance

So close but somehow apart



Sometimes I cry for you

Knowing you don't want me to

Sometimes I whisper to the stars up in the sky



That I want to find the way to your soul

Kiss in the sun when the morning comes

You don't seem to count the hours

When we are not together

I've seen a tender fire in your eyes



Yet when I'm on you carry on

I float in the emptiness

Till at least love returns

With the night

And the lonely moon



[ Solo ]



I am lonely like the moon

Always wanting you to be near

I embrace you till the dawn

Then with a smile

You disappear



We continue in our dance

There are times I think it should end

But I lost myself in rapture

And we start all over again



That I want to find the way to your soul

Kiss in the sun when the morning comes

You don't seem to count the hours

When we are not together

I've seen a tender fire in your eyes

Yet when I'm gone you carry on

I float in this emptiness

Till at least love returns

With the night

And the lonely moon



I love the warm emotion you bring

Though there is pain, I don't complain

How you can inspire me

Whenever we're together

Evertime it's like a new song

You move me so

I think you know

I won't even say a word

In your arms or far from sight

I'll be your light

Like the lonely moon
