lyrics

i follow her like a raincloud, like she is my one true north. her hair shines like iron, i could lay in it for days. she's as soothing as the ocean. i long to swim in her seas. it's the color of a newborn's eyes and warmer than the summer rain.

she hangs the moon, she puts it up on a wire, lights up my world and shines brightest in the rain. she hangs the moon, sometimes i have trouble sleeping so i stare until it's gone with day.

sometimes i just watch her sleep, afraid she'd disappear if i turned away. i can't believe she's laying next to me; if i think about it too long, i forget to breathe. if angels sleep, this is what they look like; a gentle smile at the memory of wings. her eyelids flutter like a moth in the summer, and i hold her afraid to let go.

she hangs the moon, she puts it up on a wire, lights up my world and shines brightest in the rain. she hangs the moon, sometimes i have trouble sleeping so i stare until it's gone with day.

there aren't enough words to tell her: no sonnets, no verses, no poems. there's nothing to say that i haven't, i only hope i've said enough. i follow her like a raincloud, like she is my one true north. she's a river in the desert. she's the desert when you're waist deep in snow.

she hangs the moon, she puts it up on a wire, lights up my world and shines brightest in the rain. she hangs the moon, sometimes i have trouble sleeping so i stare until it's gone with day.
