lyrics

I asked you a question and held my breath as I awaited your reply
My sweet I’ll not forget you
When I’m done gone read that long, long letter
It’s nine years now since those lights went down, but I found a light.
Not another damn moon, but a beautiful moonlight

chorus -
Wake me up before I hit the ground.
Don’t stay away too long cause I’ll be home.
I swear I heard you say you’d stick around for at least nine years.

I stare at the skyline and I hold my breath as I prepare to fall
Most of those bright stars have dimmed
when I land I’ll ignite them all
Each of those nine years offered shelter and stories long forgotten
Not another damn moon
but a beautiful moonlight

chorus-

You ask me a question and you hold your hand as you awaited my reply
My sweet I’ll not forget you
When I’m done gone read that long, long letter.
It’s been nine years now since those lights went down and I can no longer fight another damn moon or a beautiful moonlight.
Another damn moon or a beautiful moonlight.

chorus -
