Moonlight
Sting/Etc. Lyrics

In the moonlight
Under the magical and dreamy atmosphere that the moonlight brings

When the shadows play
When darkness and light interplay, creating mysterious and fascinating shapes

When the thought of what could happen
The possibility of something wonderful happening takes over the mind, creating excitement and anticipation

Takes your breath away
Makes you feel overwhelmed and breathless with the feeling of enchantment and delight

Sighs and whispers
The soft, quiet sounds of contentment and pleasure

Quiet laughter in the air
The sound of subdued and joyous laughter that surrounds the place

Unspoken invitations everywhere
The feeling of being invited to something special without explicitly being told, as if it is meant to be understood

All the words you say
The things you say in this moment feel effortless and natural

Make it relatively easy
It feels as though these simple words have the power to make things fall into place with ease

To be swept away
To feel completely taken over by the emotions and feelings coursing through your body

In the half light
In the soft and gentle light of the moon, not quite fully dark or light

Can we trust the way we feel
Do we dare to believe in the overwhelming emotions we are experiencing, or are they simply a trick of the mind?

Can we be sure that anything is real?
Is this enchanting atmosphere and the emotions that come with it truly grounded in reality, or is it just a fleeting dream?

Stars keep secrets as they wander indiscreetly
The stars, which are seemingly open to all, still hold their own secrets and mysteries as they move across the sky in their erratic paths

While the echoes of a song go drifting by
A beautiful melody lingers in the air, as though it is carried on the very same breeze that rustles the leaves

We must be careful not to lose our way completely
We must stay grounded and not let ourselves get carried away completely by the magic of the moment

Or the magic that we seek here
The enchanting feeling that we are experiencing in this moment

We can't be sure will be here
May not be able to hold onto this magical feeling forever; it could disappear at any moment

In the morning
When the night has come to an end and the day begins

With the moon away
As the light of the moon fades away and the sky becomes brighter with the light of the sun

And if in each other's arms
If we find ourselves holding each other, embracing the feelings we have shared

Is where we're meant to stay
Then this feeling and moment is where we belong

In the love light
In the light of love and the understanding that comes with shared emotions

When our eyes have grown accustomed to the daylight
When the darkness has lifted, and we see everything more clearly in the light of day

We'll see what waits for us to share
We will discover what this moment holds and what more there is for us to share together

For all the things we've dreamed of in the moonlight
For all the wishes and desires we have allowed ourselves to feel under the enchanting influence of the moonlight

Will be there
They will be waiting for us to explore and discover, to share and experience together
