Looking at these stars
Wondering where you are

You woke me in my dreams
and invited me to the moon

You took my mind far
but I feared showing you these tears
I bandaged my own scars
but you opened them and bandaged them again
Hoping I healed to the sound of your heartbeat  

5 a.m. on the moon we dance with our struggles
While hiding from our sorrows
You told me to be quite so I don't wake the sun
because you feared that my soul would burn
and this dream would end  

You bought my heart with your attention and exposed me to the moonlight
Took my sight, and made my love blind

On this moon I float my hope your way
hoping it changes my nightmares to happy tears
