That tentative space when you're both fragile and wary, but interested and eager to explore.

lyrics

The Moon and the Stars

I hope someday you’ll know I’m not the kind
To say one thing and then to change his mind
You don’t believe that now, but I’ll give you time

For you I know that love must seem absurd
How can you take another at his word
In spite of what you know, in spite of what you’ve heard

I will call you my baby
Dry your eyes, talk and hold you tight
I will call you my angel
And wait here with you
Till the moon and the stars meet the night

We watched the lightning flash across the lake
How many different forms does beauty take
Hang on to me now, don’t let this moment break

For you I know that love can’t be the same
That once upon a time can’t come again
But take my hand now, walk with me through this rain

And I will call you my baby
Dry your eyes, talk and hold you tight
And I will call you my angel
Wait here with you
Till the moon and the stars meet the night

Until the moon and the stars meet the night
