Turn your face to the moon

Let me see you that way

And the way you appear to me now you’d think the moon would hide for shame

And though there is fire inside, there’s a peace I have never known

As if all of the earth holds her breath underneath the weight of snow

I’m watching you watch the water, wondering why with every deep happiness there’s some kind of pain

And these last days I’ve let so much of me away;

But you will always be a mystery to me

I know that nothing touches you;

Nothing has or ever will

Like that moon you’re high and far away

Hold my heart - this alone is heaven

But it’s more than I can hide

And the way I feel for you now is something I don’t understand;

Because sometimes, you know, even I feel so old

But you make me feel like I’m just being born

You make me smile;

You make me know myself;

You make me feel like I’m someone else

And I’ll hold you here in the back of my mind and I’ll let you go now;

I’m letting you go

And the night rolls over us with no hesitation

There’s so much life in me now

Keep me here

Hold back time - keep me here;

Keep me here

If we were alone on this earth

Or even away from here

It would be easy to let myself go;

And God knows I want to
