I am lonely like the moon You are far away as the earth Now you say I light your thoughts Night after night Soon you forget We are drifting in this dance I can feel you circle my heart Keeping such a graceful distance So close but somehow apart Sometimes I cry for you Knowing you don't want me to Sometimes I whisper to the stars up in the sky That I want to find the way to your soul Kiss in the sun when morning comes You don't seem to count the hours When we are not together I've seen a tender fire in your eyes Yet when I'm gone you carry on I float in this emptiness Till at last love returns With the night and the lonely moon I am lonely like the moon Always wanting you to be near I embrace you till the dawn Then with a smile you disappear We continue in our dance There are times I think it should end But I lose myself in rapture And we start all over again Sometimes I cry for you Knowing you don't want me to Sometimes I whisper to the stars up in the sky That I want to find the way to your soul Kiss in the sun when morning comes You don't seem to count the hours When we are not together I've seen a tender fire in your eyes Yet when I'm gone you carry on I float in this emptiness Till at last love returns With the night and the lonely moon I love the warm emotion you bring Though there is pain, I don't complain How you can inspire me Whenever we're together Every time it's like a new song You move me so I think you know I won't even say a word In your arms or far from sight I'll be your light like the lonely moon
