moonlight
Above & Beyond Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dreams of white satin
Fairytales stuck in my head
I will fly on the eagles at night
Imagination is always out there
Seeking love and life
For the day that my demons will fall
Someone is hiding
In the dark blue sky
Moonlight around us
Is fighting with the dawn

Off you go, my love
Hope you'll find a way
Hope your dreams will guide you through
My dear, don't you cry
Fight your fears, this night
Find the fantasies waiting for you
For so long you have tried
My dear, don't give up

(Into the forest I go)
(To lose my mind and find my soul)

Every moment, elves are awaiting
The day that magic returns to this world
Once in a lifetime the nightingale sings
Gives this night a new glance
Fires burning so bright
Still we are hiding in the dark blue sky
Moonlight around us is fighting with the dawn

Off you go, my love
Hope you'll find a way
Hope your dreams will guide you through
My dear, don't you cry
Fight your fears, this night
Find your fantasies waiting for you
For so long you have tried
My dear, don't give up

I want to know how it feels if we're only
Only dancing in the rain
I want to see the moon

Off you go, my love
Hope you'll find a way
Hope your dreams will guide you through
My dear, don't you cry
Fight your fears, this night
Find your fantasies waiting for you




For so long you have tried
My dear, don't give up

it's pouring
A black sky is falling
It's cold tonight

You gave me your answer
Goodbye
Now I'm all on my own tonight

And when the big wheel starts to spin
You can never know the odds
If you don't play you'll never win

We were in heaven you and I
When I lay with you and close my eyes
Our fingers touch the sky

I'm sorry baby
You were the sun and moon to me
I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me

And when the big wheel starts to spin
You can never know the odds
If you don't play you'll never win

We were in heaven you and I
When I lay with you and close my eyes
Our fingers touch the sky

[x4:]
(I'm sorry baby
You were the sun and moon to me
I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me)
