Moon-Dream by The Used Lyrics

[Intro]
Child singing

[Verse 1]
How you slowed my tongue
Beautifier
See my own reflection
In your flower

Read a part but I skipped right to the end
To make you feel better
If our time’s a tome
Make a makeshift tomb for the butterflies

[Pre-Chorus]
For you darling
Brave sonnets, canonize my love
It’s slow weaning to find meaning
Like tracing the stars up above

When all the stars we trace
Play memories of love
I feel safe from the bitter thousand miles away because
[Chorus]
I dreamed that I was coming home
You sang me the moonlight
And in that dream you smothered me
Was more than I could write
In the song that we sing to raise the moon
Sweet whispers to children
There, there, there, there
Sleep through the silvery night

[Verse 2]
Frangipani sighs
Penny weather
Full lips pressed to touch
Like a feather

Made a promise to keep for better ends
For finite forever
Furthered ocean home
When the distance is quite imaginary

[Pre-Chorus]
For you darling
Brave sonnets, canonize my love
It’s slow weaning to find meaning
Like tracing the stars up above
When all the stars we trace
Play memories of love
I feel safe from the bitter thousand miles away because

[Chorus]
I dreamed that I was coming home
You sang me the moonlight
And in that dream you smothered me
Was more than I could write
In the song that we sing to raise the moon
Sweet whispers to children
There, there, there, there
Sleep through the silvery night

[Bridge]
Moon, moon
Shining and silver
Moon, moon
Silver and bright
Moon, moon
Whispers to children
Sleep, sleep
Sleep through the silver night
Through the night

[Chorus]
I dreamed that I was coming home
You sang me the moonlight
And in that dream you smothered me
Was more than I could write
In the song that we sing to raise the moon
Sweet whispers to children
There, there, there, there
Sleep through the silvery
