[Intro]
(Ooh, yeah)
[Verse 1]
Lying on the window ledge, night so still
Moonlight paints the room, shadows chill
Saw your face in the subway crowd
Heartbeat loud, but now you're a cloud
Memories of your smile, soft and sweet
Wishing that our eyes could meet
[Chorus]
I'm talking to the moon tonight
Telling it how you shine so bright
Words I'd say if you were here
But you're gone, and it's not clear
Oh, I'm sending love through silver beams
Hoping you can feel it in your dreams
[Verse 2]
Every train that passes by
Carries a wish I can't deny
Maybe you're on the other side
Somewhere in the city, deep inside
I trace your name upon the glass
This moment's never meant to last
[Chorus]
I'm talking to the moon tonight
Telling it how you shine so bright
Words I'd say if you were here
But you're gone, and it's not clear
Oh, I'm sending love through silver beams
Hoping you can feel it in your dreams
[Bridge]
Maybe one day we'll cross again
Under rain or sun, but 'til then
I'll keep your image in my mind
A perfect stranger, so kind
[Outro]
Moonlight fades, dawn breaks gray
But I'll hold on to yesterday
(Ooh, you're my midnight muse)
