The Moon - Microphones

[00:00.0]The Moon (Acoustic) - Microphones
[00:55.88]I drove up to the city at night
[00:58.84]And found the place where you grew up
[01:02.54]And then where you stayed
[01:04.5]And then we walked around
[01:06.87]And stayed up late
[01:08.51]Under city lights
[01:10.56]And I spent the night
[01:12.53]Next to you in the house
[01:14.31]Where you grew up
[01:16.31]Next to you I miraculously woke up
[01:20.17]In your parents' house
[01:22.12]I lied in bed with you
[01:26.72]I went back to feel alone there
[01:34.75]I went back to wipe it clean
[01:42.520004]I took the lights and radio
[01:44.880005]Towers out of my dreams
[01:50.619995]We went all the way up to
[01:52.84]The small town where I'm from
[01:55.2]With foggy air
[01:56.69]And the wind
[01:57.44]And the mountain top
[01:59.55]We clung to rocks
[02:01.01]And we looked off
[02:02.92]You held my hand
[02:04.76]You almost got to start feeling me
[02:08.57]I finally felt like I was breathing free
[02:13.4]And under swaying trees
[02:15.06]We fell asleep and had the same dream
[02:17.86]The stars were bright
[02:19.62]We dream the same every night
[02:21.84]On my island home my spent
[02:24.67]Some time with you
[02:28.5]I went back to feel alone there
[02:36.51]I went back there by myself
[02:44.38]And gave up on everything that we'd felt
[02:52.04001]We found a precious place in the sand
[02:55.33]Right out in the wind
[02:57.2]And lied under a blanket
[02:58.99]And heard the furious sound
[03:00.83]The roar of waves
[03:02.15]The pounding surf
[03:02.81]Two bodies on the earth:
[03:04.69]It was intense just getting
[03:06.64]To be there next to you
[03:14.3]And you were trying to get me then
[03:18.11]And I was happy to let you in
[03:22.68]I went back and wished I hadn't
[03:30.79001]I went back and felt regret
[03:37.95]I went to the beach and I stared west
[03:46.15]Every night when the sun went down
[03:48.87]In the town where we live
[03:50.70999]The empty streets were lit up
[03:52.99]By reflected light
[03:54.74]From a distant sun
[03:56.92]Bouncing off a glowing ball of rock
[04:00.61]We just lied on the roof and watched
[04:09.35]The moon
[04:10.27]The moon
[04:10.96]The blue light of the moon
[04:12.7]We didn't talk and silently
[04:15.71]We both felt powerful
[04:19.35]Like the moon my chest was full
[04:24.01]Because we both knew
[04:24.98]We're just floating in
[04:26.09]The same space over molten rock
[04:28.67]And we felt safe and discovered
[04:30.57]That our skin is soft
[04:32.97]There's nothing left except certain death
[04:36.0]And that was comforting at night under the moon
[04:46.75]I went out last night to forget that
[04:54.75]I went out and stared it down
[05:02.47]But the moon just stared back at me
[05:10.46]And in it's light I saw
[05:12.67]My two feet on the ground
