8 Letters Lyrics

Cradle me just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

Hold me close ‘cause I'm the one
Burning brighter than the sun

You don't even need to try
To Lie about your other life
Please remind me once again
How we were ever more than friends

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

[Chorus: x2]
Eight letters, three words
Barely, rarely heard
Eight letters, three words
Rarely every heard

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

Hold me close ‘cause I'm the one
Burning brighter than the sun

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

[Chorus: x4]

Cradle me, just like the moon

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon
Hold me close ‘cause I'm the one
Burning brighter than the sun

You don't even need to try
To Lie about your other life
Please remind me once again
How we were ever more than friends

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

[Chorus: x2]

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon
Hold me close ‘cause I'm the one
Burning brighter than the sun

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

[Chorus: x6]

Cradle me, just like the moon

Cradle me just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

Hold me close ‘cause I'm the one
Burning brighter than the sun

You don't even need to try
To Lie about your other life
Please remind me once again
How we were ever more than friends

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

[Chorus: x2]
Eight letters, three words
Barely, rarely heard
Eight letters, three words
Rarely every heard

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

Hold me close ‘cause I'm the one
Burning brighter than the sun

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

[Chorus: x4]

Cradle me, just like the moon

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon
Hold me close ‘cause I'm the one
Burning brighter than the sun

You don't even need to try
To Lie about your other life
Please remind me once again
How we were ever more than friends

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

[Chorus: x2]

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon
Hold me close ‘cause I'm the one
Burning brighter than the sun

Cradle me, just like the moon
My heart is full it's breaking soon

[Chorus: x6]

Cradle me, just like the moon

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
