TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT

Moonlight, why don't you come overhear

let out all those fears, it has been years

so let me help whip away your tears.

tell me all about those painful love affairs

I am your true friend that cares

about your wellbeing

what did he do to make you so scared?

why are you looked in this darkened room?

Tell me all about him and his worth

why did he throw your love away just to see you hurt?

I cannot express how all of this makes me feel

I don't like seeing you ill, and this is for reals,

he left you broken in your youth

just to see you fade away

in those clouds of gray

Moonlight, let me show you the way

into brighter days

I will help you get through all of this

take my hand and let us talk it all out

we don't need to shout

in this cold September rain, I do see all your outer pains

but all that you hold within, God can wash away those sins.

I have waited for you so long

just to say what you need to

I will help you not to be so confused

I know this beast abused and used

Moonlight, we don't need to get into a fuss

this was never about us,

I felt this coldness that has been pouring out from your heart

this old beast really played his part

that has really come between and left you in the dark

when I look into your eyes

I could see your loneliness, running around in all this coldness

has left you empty and abused in a cold darkened room

now you are laying in a bed of bitterness

but with the time you will heal, and I am being for real,

you will be as good as new, in the end.
