Lyrics

Moonlight

Here's our chance to make it
Make this into something more
Here's my heart, don't break it
It's all that I ask
Nothing more

Break into your heart
Called from wild and far away
Can any fool learn love?
It's all that I ask

Nothing more
Nothing more

So we just lay in bed all day
I couldn't see, by the cloud in my arms
But if I ask you, would you say
It's only rain

Nothing more
Nothing more
Nothing more
Nothing more

Here I lay me down
Here I lay me down
Here I lay me down
Here I lay me down
Here I lay me down
Here I lay me down
