Moonlight Misses You
Chasing Moonlight: Love's Dance in New York City
Lyrics
The moonlight loved to see her face
The moonlight appreciates seeing her face.
So it danced along the smile she made
It joyfully follows the smile she expresses.
I knew the sun was on its way
The speaker senses the approaching sunrise.
So I begged the moon to slow its pace
Pleading for the moon to linger, delaying the dawn.
If this night should end and fade out I should tell her
Expressing a desire to confess love if the night ends.
That I loved her on the same day that I found her
Recalling the moment of discovering and falling in love.
That night in New York City still gets louder
Reflecting on a memorable night in New York City.
I've been chasing all the sounds that we left out there
Pursuing the echoes of sounds left behind.
The streetlights still get jealous that I found you first
Streetlights being personified as envious of finding love first.
The pavement still knows all the steps that we rehearsed
Pavement retaining the steps of a rehearsed dance.
Let's go back to where we fell in love
Expressing a desire to revisit the place where love blossomed.
The memory is waiting there for us
Anticipating a cherished memory waiting to be revisited.
We were running barefoot in the streets
Remembering carefree moments of running barefoot together.
Like a dance to no specific beat
Describing their love as a dance without a specific rhythm.
Did we craft a love we couldn't keep?
Questioning if their crafted love was sustainable.
I feel a permanence in this concrete
Sensing a lasting connection in the city's concrete.
Then I saw a shadow growing on the sidewalk
Observing a metaphorical shadow on the sidewalk.
The sun returned for what the moon had borrowed
The sun reclaiming what the moon had borrowed, signifying the end of the night.
In the morning light would New York City know us?
Questioning if New York City will recognize them in the morning light.
Would it pave over the footsteps that we'd stolen?
Wondering if their footsteps will be paved over and forgotten.
The streetlights still get jealous that I found you first
Reiteration of streetlights being envious of finding love first.
The pavement still knows all the steps that we rehearsed
Pavement retaining the steps of a rehearsed dance.
Let's go back to where we fell in love
Revisiting the desire to return to the place where love began.
The memory is waiting there for us
Reaffirming the existence of a cherished memory waiting for them.
And the moonlight misses you
Expressing that the moonlight longs for the absent loved one.
The moonlight misses you
Reiteration of the moonlight's longing for the person.
Take my hand, don't you let it go
Asking to hold hands, symbolizing a connection.
This star lit night lives in your soul
Describing the enduring beauty of a starlit night in one's soul.
But as the light comes in are we losing sight of it?
Raising concern about losing sight of the metaphorical starlight.
Take my hand don't you let it go
Reiterating the plea to hold hands, emphasizing connection.
This star lit night lives in your soul
Highlighting the enduring presence of starlight in the soul.
I promise I won't lose the sight of you
Promising not to lose sight of the person.
The streetlights still get jealous that I found you first
Reiteration of streetlights being envious of finding love first.
The pavement still knows all the steps that we rehearsed
Pavement retaining the steps of a rehearsed dance.
Let's go back to where we fell in love
Revisiting the desire to return to the place where love began.
The memory is waiting there for us
Reaffirming the existence of a cherished memory waiting for them.
And the moonlight misses you
Reiterating that the moonlight misses the absent loved one.
The moonlight misses you
Final repetition of the moonlight's longing for the person.
