[Verse 1]
C                 Am
On this night the pale moon flies
            C              Em
Through the endless starry skies.
   Am      Em
So hold me close;
Am       Em     F     C      Am      G
Feel the rhythm of my heart, echoing far.
Am      Em
Take my hand;
Am      Em        F           C
Lead me where two souls could soar,
  Am   F     G         C
Oh, so far away and so near.


[Verse 2]
C                Am
I have seen your eyes before
     C            Em
In another life I lived.
   Am   Em
In innocence,
Am  Em     F         C   Am           G
I imagined you could fly close to the stars.
Am     Em
Here I am,
Am      Em      F       C
Waiting for the moon to rise,
  Am   F     G         C
Oh, so far away and so near.

[Verse 3]
C            Am
I have felt eternity
       C               Em
In the way you look at me.
   Am        Em
On feathered wings,
Am       Em     F       C     Am          G
Chase my spirit far and wide, ageless and free.
Am      Em
Take me there,
Am     Em           F        C
Always towards that place of peace,
  Am   F     G         C
Oh, so far away and so near.
