the moon

cast the swords down, take off all your armor, let me see you.
the game is up, the other soldiers have gone, and we should too.
the grass is growing back on this dusty battlefield.
i know you love your wounds, but you've got to let them heal.

and now the night is falling, say goodbye to the sun.
you can throw away your shield now that this war has been won.

i wanna see you, under the moon, under the moon.
i wanna see you under the moon, under the moon.
i wanna see you.

your life is done, your old one, time to start anew.
we'll flee the scene, or we'll make a scene and breathe what air we choose.
but i can't tell you what to do, no one can.
all i can do is offer up my hands.

and now the night is falling say goodbye to the sun
you can throw away your shield now that this war has been won.

i wanna see you, under the moon, under the moon
i wanna see you, under the moon, under the moon

well, first the sword comes down, and then the shield,
and then it's me, the stars, on this reborn battlefield,

and it's you, under the moon, under the moon
and it's you, under the moon, under the moon,
it's you...
