Moonlight
Music: Aaron Zinsmeister, BMI Lyrics: Rändi Fay, BMI ©2017
Hello there, the stars are out,
speckling the dark
and I’m just one of many
Sit with me, let’s talk about
the quiet of the park
and why thoughts cost a penny
Your leg against mine, I know all is fine with the world that’s outside my cocoon:
Glow on the horizon, Love that lights my way
I was just surviving ’til you turned night to day
you rise and you bloom, like the apricot moon
You are my clair de lune
You are my clair de lune
Collar ruffles in the breeze,
I shiver in the cold
you button up my sweater
Music filters through the trees
we listen and behold
the wonders of forever
With mist in our eyes, we try on for size how your hand rests in mine like a spoon
Glow on the horizon, Love that lights my way
I was just surviving ’til you turned night to day
you rise and you bloom, like the apricot moon
You are my clair de lune
You are my clair de lune
Bridge:
Restless hearts, lying octaves apart
bridged by the flutter of wings
and ripples that rise to the dance of fireflies
an arpeggio written for kings
