The Moon and the Stars

What is this jaded memory that fades away so endlessly Its song plays gently in my head like a melody strung by a thread Note by note the chords they drop there is no telling when they stop What a beautiful chiming sound as if it echoes from the ground My feet they feel this strange vibration It's sweeping over every sensation My hands they move from by my side My body's on this wild ride Turns and twists, bumps and drops My heart is beating just like a drum I try to talk but my mouth won't speak Too many secrets my silent tongue keeps My mind won't tell my lips what to say I just hope that you don't walk away I'd give anything to make you stay Trying to think of any way to keep you here another day Slowly these words they creep from my mouth How are you today and I didn't even notice as you said my name Across your face a smile came I'm just hoping that you don't see with that kind of smile you outshine me But if that smile was wiped from your face make no mistake I would make every effort to put it back to its rightful place Because you don't see that your the moon and I'm the stars When you look up in the sky your the first they see I'm just a side note woah is me But as long as I can stand under the light you cast then forever in bliss I will bask For this feeling washes over me like the warmth of the ocean and the surge of the sea It fills my head with insane notions I hover slightly above the ground beneath as if a balloon being set free I chase you through this Amber sky and feel a tear come from my eye You're so far away but close it seems From your beautiful eyes this softness gleams There is this glow that surrounds you pushing me down while it lifts you up I'm clawing and biting to make my way but this terrain is quite rough but through the clouds what do I see a gracious smile awaiting me With your hand stretched out It's plain to me I want no one else to stand beside me
