[Verse 1] Bare feet on the gravel Shadows long and thin You laugh like you forgot how Then you swallow it again Your hands in your old coat Middle of July You say the air feels borrowed And you don't know why [Chorus] We were dancing in the moonlight Moving like we might break Every step a small goodbye Every turn a quiet ache Spin me 'til the stars blur Hold me like you used to say We were dancing in the moonlight As the night pulled you away [Verse 2] Moths around the porch light Orbit and then fall You trace a circle in the dirt Name the ones you've lost in all You say, "Time is just a rumor" Kick a stone into the weeds I try to joke, it falls flat Like a song in the wrong key [Chorus] We were dancing in the moonlight Moving like we might break Every step a small goodbye Every turn a quiet ache Spin me 'til the stars blur Hold me like you used to say We were dancing in the moonlight As the night pulled you away [Bridge] I would freeze this faded pale sky (oh) I would trade my tomorrow for your tonight But your eyes are somewhere past the treeline And your smile is only half in the light [Chorus] We were dancing in the moonlight Moving like we might break Every step a small goodbye Every turn a quiet ache Spin me 'til the stars blur Hold me like you used to say We were dancing in the moonlight And you slipped into the day
