Lyrics

The Moon That Never Came

You are tiny like the sea
Huge, majestic, as a twig
You are near as skies above
Far as earth beneath my toes

We were waiting for so long
We will wait for you forever
Waiting for the clouds to pass
For a moon that never came

Sail you in a little boat
White on slowly flowing water
Carry you I always will

When I want to, when I don?t
We were waiting for so long
We will wait for you forever
Waiting for the clouds to pass
For a moon that never came

[instrumental]

Silent on an empty bridge:
stars are glinting on the water,
dimming as the day awakes
dreams of you will never fade

We were waiting for so long
We will wait for you forever
Waiting for the clouds to pass
For a moon that never came

A hundred moons may shine their light
A hundred clouds will turn to silver
And in the end there?s only this
How could I loose you
I never had you
How could I loose you
I never had you,
Still waiting for the moon ?
