Send Me the Moon Lyrics

I think the opening verse goes something more like this:

Holding my breath Last one I've got left Till I see you Deliver my heart With the pieces and parts of me left

Every last day seemed to carry the weight Of a lifetime I watch from the ground As the gold fluttered down From the sky

This song sounds like heaven to me. Pure and heartfelt. There's a kind of yearning that's softened by a peace and patience that permeates every second of this song, and I love it. And what better way is there to paint a picture of a sunset without actually saying what it is?

you're response is poetic. i agree, it is truly pure beauty.
