Moonlight
Silv3rT3ar Lyrics

Yeah (stop, stop, stop, stop)
The singer is trying to stop their desperate feelings.

You’ll only get your wings wet
The singer is hesitant to reach out to the person they love because they fear that they will only cause harm.

Oh, oh, (oh, oh...)
The singer is expressing their emotions through sounds of anguish.

As the day falls into darkness,
The artist is setting the scene for a somber moment.

You come up to me quietly
The person the artist loves is sneaking up to them without a sound.

You save me from a nightmare,
The person the singer loves is a source of comfort who helps them escape from their fears.

But before I'm aware you seem to fade away
The singer realizes that their loved one is not really there, leaving them feeling lost and alone.

(As if you were never there)
The artist is lamenting the disappearance of their loved one, feeling as though they were never really there to begin with.

It’s just as if I've lost you, you, you

The night sky's empty, silent...
The artist is describing their surroundings, which are bleak and lonely.

Out there nothing moves

So, baby, hold on

I need to be with you,

But the distance between us is so vast that I don’t know what to do

You’re showered by the glow of the moonlight
The singer is picturing their loved one basked in the light of the moon.

It's so enchanting; can't get you out of my mind
The artist is captivated by the beauty of their loved one and is unable to stop thinking about them.

Frozen like an image; barely in sight
The artist is describing their loved one as a distant, frozen image that is just out of reach.

But there forever
The singer believes their love for their loved one will last forever.

Can't reach out to touch you
The singer is physically unable to touch their loved one.

Or to hold you in my arms
The artist is longing to hold their loved one but can't.

Even if I close my eyes, I can never dream of you

′Cause you're not here with me; you're not in my story

It only hurts, the more I try to get to you

I know this needs to stop, stop, stop, stop, yeah

I let you go without calling out to you
The singer is saying goodbye to their loved one without expressing their love.

You hide your pain underneath a smile
The singer is noticing that their loved one is hiding their pain and suffering behind a smile.

Even though you've been hurting for a long while

I see the trembling of your fragile wings
The artist is empathizing with their loved one's vulnerability.

I can tell you’re suffering

You can stay here, right by my side

I'll keep you safe with me, you'll be fine

I'll hold you ′til dawn, and following the moon, you can fly to tomorrow

Don′t look back, yeah
