What About the Moonlight Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Telling me you don't want to be here
Had enough of life
I see your shoulders falling down the mountain
You once loved to climb
Don't you want to talk about it?
Well saying there's no life left inside you

[Chorus]
What about your loves?
What about your dreams?
What about the change tomorrow brings?
What about the moonlight?
What about the way you sigh
When it touches you?

[Verse 2]
On your knees in the teeth of failure
It's got you gagged and bound
You say it's killing you but listen now I'm tellin' you
Your better days are to come
Set your sight on simple beauty
Like the way that my eyes shine when I'm around you

[Chorus]
What about your loves?
What about your dreams?
What about the change tomorrow brings?
What about the moonlight?
What about the way you sigh
When it touches you?
[Bridge]
Nobody said it would be easy
To take the fall and stand
Just wrap your arms tight around me
And we'll stumble together
Until we learn to dance
(What about your loves?)
(What about your dreams?)
(What about your loves?)
(What about your dreams?)

[Chorus]
What about your loves?
What about your dreams?
What about the change tomorrow brings?
What about the moonlight?
What about the way you sigh
When it touches you?

[Outro]
(What about your loves?)
What about you?
(What about your dreams?)
(What about the change tomorrow brings?)
What about the change tomorrow?
(What about the moonlight?)
What about the moonlight?
(What about your dreams?)
What about the way you sigh
When it touches you?
(What about your loves?)
(What about your dreams?)
(What about the change tomorrow brings?)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
