[Intro] [Wind through pine trees] [Distant raven calls] [Soft frame drum heartbeat] Under the blue moon… Under the blue moon… [Verse 1] You once ran with the mountains Where the wild winds called your name A spirit born of open skies Too fierce for earth to tame You taught me love in silence In the language of the soul A bond woven through moonlit nights And roots that made us whole Then the wheel of fate turned sharply And the earth beneath us broke The fire inside your restless heart Faded beneath the smoke Still I vowed beside the old gods And the stars above the sea That through every wound and shadow You would never walk without me [Pre-Chorus] Through sleepless nights and whispered prayers Beneath unfamiliar skies I carried hope like sacred flame Reflected in your eyes [Chorus] Under a blue moon shining silver in your eyes I held you close and watched the darkness meet the light And when your weary spirit reached beyond the night I whispered through my tears It’s okay… It’s okay to fly You lost your wings when sorrow Bound your body to the earth But no cage could hold the wildness That had lived inside since birth So when the moonlight called you And the stars opened the sky I let my tears become the rain And told you Go on and fly [Verse 2] I still carry all the questions Like stones inside my chest Wondering if there was more That I could have done to help I swore I’d never leave you Swore I’d guide you through the storm But some roads lead beyond the reach Of hands that keep us warm Perhaps each dawn became a prison Each breath another chain Perhaps the sky was calling softly Through every drop of pain And maybe in the silence The moon already knew The path that stretched beyond this world Was waiting there for you [Pre-Chorus] So I lay beside you one last time Beneath the midnight glow The blue moon shining in your eyes Like somewhere you could go And though my heart was breaking With every passing breath My love remained beside you At the threshold of your death [Chorus] Under a blue moon shining silver in your eyes I held you close and watched the darkness meet the light And when your weary spirit reached beyond the night I whispered through my tears It’s okay… It’s okay to fly You lost your wings when sorrow Bound your body to the earth But no cage could hold the wildness That had lived inside since birth So when the moonlight called you And the stars opened the sky I let my tears become the rain And told you Go on and fly [Bridge] [Cello swells] [Layered female harmonies] The hardest thing I’ve ever done Was opening my hands And letting someone I loved Follow a different path Love is not possession Love is not a chain Sometimes mercy is the moonlit gate Beyond all earthly pain If there are sacred meadows Past the blue moon’s silver glow I hope you’re running wild again Where ancient spirits roam No fences made of sorrow No broken wings to mend Only endless skies surrounding My beloved friend [Final Chorus] Under that blue moon shining softly in your eyes I watched your spirit rise beyond the darkened night And though a piece of me departed when goodbye arrived I hear your wings above me Whenever moonlight shines You never truly left me You’re written in my soul In every raven’s calling And every story told And when my own path ends Beneath the turning sky I’ll meet you where the blue moon waits And together We will fly [Outro] [Wind rises] [Raven calls] As your final breath escaped I held you close beneath the moon With tears upon my face And my forehead pressed to yours I whispered “You’re flying now… You’re flying to the moon.” [Wind fades into silence]
