[Verse 1] How can you look at me with such kindness while I break into tears when you simply ask me if I would spend the night here? oh ohh You wrapped your arms around me, kissed my forehead gently as you said, "If it scares you, do what feels right. And if you cannot decide, let the time decide." oh ohh [Chorus] So I let the moon decide for me While the lights are still on, and moonlight's trying to get in. You never tried to save me, never tried to change me. You simply stayed beyond the high walls around my heart. And somehow, somehow, that was enough. [Verse 2] I sat down on the couch, and you made the jasmine and blueberry tea I like so much. You lit every candle, turned on every small light, sat across from me on the floor across the glass between us and through the balcony doors, moonlight drifted toward your face. Yet you only looked outside with your blue eyes, past the silver glow of moonlight and spoke of ordinary things. No questions. No demands No advice. No pressure. Just you talking about the night and the weather And my tears no longer strike the surface of the tea so often [Pre-Chorus] You let your presence rest there gently Mhmm And for the first time, the silence and distance did not hurt. oh ohh [Chorus] So I let the moon decide for me While candles burned and silver moonlight crossed the floor. You never tried to save me, never tried to change me. You simply stayed beyond the palisade around my heart. And somehow, somehow, that was enough. [Bridge] Now, hours passed by, and the city grew quiet. The moon is almost gone, and finally my mind grows still. And as sleep finally found you, still resting on the ground, The silver light finally got you and settled on your shoulders like a cloak. oh ohh Then it was my turn to keep watch So I brought you a blanket. and your pillow. And as I covered you, I realized that the time had already chosen. [Final Chorus] So the moon decided for me With no candles left burning, only silver moonlight touching you. You never tried to save me, never tried to change me. You simply stayed beyond the fence around my heart. And somehow, somehow, that was enough. [Outro] I dimmed the lights. The room grew still. And lying there, watching you sleep, Thinking about you and, Thinking about me, mhm and my eyes sink into sleep with the last moonlight fading into dawn as well And somehow, that was more than enough [End]
