You are the very Moon to me I have to hold my breath and count each time you leave You still linger through the day, the dawning cannot chase The dizzy magic of your silvery light away You are the very Moon above Your light can soothe away my fear of letting go You are the interval between the waking and the dream You are my love, the very Moon to me Ooh-ooh, how long, how long can we hide in this sweet love song? Ooh-ooh, now we both know, we been longing for this day for so long You entered my world without warning The dark of the night is now dawning You brought back the spark to my eye Calmed my fears so I could let them fly You are the very Moon to me I have to hold my breath and count each time you leave I need the magic that you weave to bring out the best in me You are my love, the very Moon to me Ooh-ooh, the dark of the night working wonders as it fills my heart Sweet night has come to hold me tight Oh, I long to stay here where you are Here in this magical hour High up in love's ivory tower When day turns to night, turns into day Shaping precious moments on its way, mm-hm But if moonlight should fade In the black of night that followed I could cling to the dream A moonlit night from us Tomorrow, tomorrow Oh, you are the very Moon to me I have to hold my breath and count Each time you leave I need the magic that you weave To bring out the best in me You are my love, the very Moon My love, the very Moon to me
