Moonlight On Your Skin
Envy in Moonlit Moments
Lyrics
MOONLIGHT ON YOUR SKIN
Moonlight On Your Skin
The taxi driver asked where we were going
The taxi driver inquires about our destination
The city lights were dancing in your eyes
City lights reflecting in your eyes, a moment of connection
I'm not sure if anyone knew we'd be showing
Uncertainty if others expected our presence
But your friends all smiled when you arrived
Your friends greeted you with smiles upon your arrival
cnd everyone we met kind of just looked past me
Others at the gathering seemed to overlook me
Though I understood their reasoning
I understood their perspective or judgment
Yeah I bet every other person at this party
Suspecting envy from others at the party
Must be jealous of the moonlight on your skin
Assuming others envy the moonlight's impact on your skin
The snow was coming down outside our window
Snowfall visible outside the window
cnd the hotel curtains swayed all through the night
Hotel curtains swaying through the night
We sat up late to hear the winter winds blow
Staying awake to experience the winter winds
cnd being so far from home had never felt so right
Being far from home feels strangely right
You said sometimes it's like your mind runs off without me
Your mind sometimes seems disconnected from mine
But whatever it is won't you let me in
Requesting entry into your thoughts
I said I'm thinking every star in Chester county
Contemplating the vastness of stars in Chester county
Must be jealous of the moonlight on your skin
Believing stars envy the moonlight on your skin
Now it's been a while since I last saw your homeland
It's been a while since visiting your homeland
You call from time to time and let me know
You keep me informed through occasional calls
cbout this past life that I let slip through my hand
Reflecting on a past life I let slip away
cnd that heart that I'm still trying to let go
Struggling to release a lingering heartache
Now every night fly's by a little faster
Time seems to pass swiftly every night
cnd all my stories end the same way they begin
Stories unfolding in a repetitive cycle
I'm happy that you found your ever after
Happy for your found happiness
But I'm still jealous of the moonlight on your skin
Despite happiness, still envious of the moonlight on your skin
Yeah I'm happy that you found your ever after
Reiterating happiness for your contentment
But I'm still jealous of the moonlight on your skin
Expressing ongoing envy for the moonlight's effect on you
