You Are the Very Moon

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
