Moonlight’s bright tonight. Let’s go outside and play In the fields of the village. Morning’s far away.
Still crisp air holds its breath In silence as we watch Moonlit shadows creeping west, Forever out of reach.
We try to chase the shadows Running through the trees, Standing tall like rocket ships Against the lonely seas.
Come along and run with me, The fields await our gaze. There lay mysteries to be seen Beyond the twilight haze.
We’ll chase our noble destiny Into the howling storm And catch those fleeting shadows, Running with open arms.
We’ve stayed in this tiny village Longer than we aught. The world awaits, bold and bright Even if we’re caught.
It’s time to make our journey To lands far and wide. I’d rather face the future With you by my side.
Moonlight’s bright tonight. Let’s go outside and play. Time to forge our future, In the streets with me today.
Growing up in a small village, we feel we must escape and move on to bigger and better opportunities. Night takes on the symbolic guise of the unknown future. The ask of the partner to run away with the speaker and join them in life harkens to growing up as well as escaping a tired boring existence. Risks await our couple but so does the chance at greatness
