As high as the moon

So high were my spirits

When you sang out my name

And coming from you

It was enough just to hear it

Oh, it rang like the bells did today

But even the sturdiest ground

Can shift and can tremble and let us fall down

Kindly unspoken

You show your emotion

And silence speaks louder than words

It's lucky I'm clever

If I didn't know better

I'd believe only that which I'd heard

In the days of my folly

I followed your lead

Did what simon said to do

But I won't let melancholy

Play me for a fool

Oh, no I'm on my way somewhere new

And as far as your lack of something to say

Well, to tell me goodbye there was no better way

[Chorus]

So don't keep me up till the dawn

With words that'll keep leading me on

I know much better than to wait for an answer from you

[Chorus]
