You Know That Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You're a treasure no one opened
You're that diamond no one found
There's no casual liaison
When your heart is in the clouds
Could have been your bit of style
Could have been your bit of grace
Could have been the way the starlight played upon your face
Starlight played upon your face

[Chorus]
Moonlight, be a friend tonight
We're all wrecked up on these dreams
Holding on a bit too tight
Well, I got splinters from these moonbeams
If it seems I'm falling down
If it seems we're falling through
Darling, you know that is nothing
You know that is nothing new

[Verse 2]
Look at me with longing eyes
And I will always know the score
Say the words I long to hear
And I won't need them anymore
If this moment seems forever
There are some things you don't waste
If it's a little bit of God, then come in here and have a
Come in here and have a taste

[Chorus]
Moonlight, be a friend tonight
We're all wrecked up on these dreams
Holding on a bit too tight
I got splinters from these moonbeams
If it seems I'm falling down
If it seems we're falling through
Darling, you know that is nothing
You know that is nothing new

[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 3]
You and me could build a bridge
Over every place that hurts
Time to tear the walls down hard
'Cause they never really worked
And if the first words start to stumble
And sound slightly out of tune
It's the opening of hearts, it is the closing of
Closing of the deepest wounds

[Chorus]
Moonlight, be a friend tonight
We're all wrecked up on these dreams
Holding on a bit too tight
I got splinters from these moonbeams
If it seems I'm falling down
If it seems we're falling through
Darling, you know that is nothing
Darling, you know that is nothing
Darling, you know that is nothing
You know that is nothing new
[Outro]
Darling, that is nothing new
(Oh, oh, oh)
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
That is nothing new
(Oh, oh, oh)
Darling, darling
That is nothing new
(Oh, oh, oh)
Oh, oh, oh

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 [?]
