[Verse 1] Babe, will you save me a dance by the river Moonlight is serving us well She makes the whole world silhouette Makes it flicker like film on a strip Don't let the sadness in yet to react as if Somehow it's all come and gone Let's pretend we're all healed up and happy and moved on [Chorus] Tonight let the moon come shine Let us remain you and I Tell the sun not to rise For the darkest time Moonlight keep us steady Give me one more night then I'm ready To let go, to know we are only shadows [Verse 2] Babe, I'm so sorry to ask I'm ashamed but tonight I just can't give you up I shackled myself to the past and my will has gone missing Let's call our shadow selves out for the evening And watch them remember our love Tomorrow will come and I know they'll be leaving That our time is up [Chorus]
