"Moonlight" lyrics

"Moonlight"

In denial spending all of my time
Worried I am slowly losing my mind

In the house
Where we kept
All our secrets under the bed

Came a voice in the dark
With your trademark
That set my brain on fire

How was I supposed to know you wanted space
When every time you say, "I'm fine"
And the words that left me haunted
Played all through the night
Echo in the streets I walk by moonlight

Drop a line I've been waiting for a lifetime
I could lie and say I'm alright
But I'm a little tired

How was I supposed to know you wanted space
When every time you say, "I'm fine"
And the words that left me haunted
Played all through the night
Echo in the streets I walk by moonlight

Emotional riot
Am I your someone?
A moment too quiet
Will you choose to run?

What can I say to make you stay
To make you fall in love
What can I do to make it true
Lost in the dream of us

And the words that left me haunted
Played all through the night
Echo in the streets I walk by moonlight

How was I supposed to know you wanted space
When every time you say, "I'm fine"
And the words that left me haunted
Played all through the night
Echo in the streets I walk by moonlight
