Lyric

The moon I watch night after night displays a different face

Just like you, it’s cold and distant, moving through the space

If I have to trust the starlight as my only guiding ray

Can I find my way to meet you before the break of day?

The room is steeped in shadows, I’ve turned out every light

Surrendering my body to the warmth within the night

I want to see your gentle smile, glowing in my mind

Even if the darkness makes the rest of us go blind

Even our soft kisses are hidden from the view

In the deep and velvet black, I’m searching only you

With the lights turned out, I’m waiting in the gloom

Let the ticking of the clock echo through the room

I want to feel your heartbeat, I want to feel your skin

In the sanctuary where the midnight world begins

Hold me till I fall asleep, hold me till I’m gone

In the dark, where love is real, away from every dawn

The moon is slowly filling, growing round and bright and tall

Ignoring how my heavy heart is starting now to fall

If I could hide the moonlight with a thick and heavy cloud

I’d shout your name into the dark, so desperately and loud

I want to hear you whisper in a tone so soft and low

Where our melting breaths are all we ever have to know

Keep the lights turned out, let the shadows take control

As the silence starts to weave its fingers through my soul

Every dream is vivid when the sun is far away

In the dark, we find the words we’re too afraid to say

Time is drifting by us, like a river in a dream

Nothing in the darkness is ever what it seems

Look at me, see everything, every part of me

Beyond the light of reason, beyond what eyes can see

With the lights turned out, I’m waiting in the gloom

Let the ticking of the clock echo through the room

I want to feel your heartbeat, I want to feel your skin

In the sanctuary where the midnight world begins

Our tomorrow

Hidden in the dark

The cold moon’s face

Whisper to me

In the darkness

Only you
