Moonlight Song Lyrics

[allegrita]

Dear Moonlightaholics,

For a long time now, we've been thinking about compiling the lyrics to the Moonlight songs. Some of them are available in lyrics sites online, but many songs don't have easily obtained lyrics--and lots of those online sites get the lyrics wrong, which can be very annoying!

Here's how it will work. Below is the Moonlight song list, originally compiled by JerseyGirl and updated by various people (mostly Lilly) over the years. We are inviting our members to pick a song and go find (or figure out) the lyrics to it. For each song, please post a reply to this thread with the song title and the lyrics. We'll update this first post with a link from the song title to the post with the lyrics. (Please make a separate reply for each song, so our links will point to the right lyrics!)

In your post, please post the entire lyrics, not a link to another site where they are posted. Since links can go bad, we'd like to have the lyrics here, to keep a record. Also, when you're posting them, take a moment to listen to the song, and fix any errors in the lyrics you find. That way, our list will be accurate.

Thanks so much for helping us with this project! And happy lyric-hunting!

Your MLA Admin/Mod Team

p.s. We've taken some songs without lyrics off the list (such as "Saving Josh"). There may be more--if you notice one on the list that has no lyrics, please let us know! Thanks!

p.p.s. Some of the song lyrics have "adult language" (aka naughty words). Since the public parts of the board are PG-13, please use stars to "bleep out" the words. (See Los Angeles as an example.)

Forever and Ever Amen (8mm)

Everybody knows,
You don't get what you plan.
And everybody runs away from what they don't understand.
Everybody hides away the guilt of their youth.
And everybody wonders why no one ever tells the truth.
Mmmmmmm....
Everybody knows that everybody wants.
And everybody has their ghosts,
That emptiness that haunts.
When everybody adds it up,
They've lost more than they've won.
And everybody wishes they were just like everyone.
Chorus:
Forever and ever amen
Forever and ever amen
Mmmm...
Forever and ever amen
Oooohhh...
Forever and ever amen
Oooohhh...
Forever and ever amen (Oooohh) x 6
Forever and ever amen
Forever and ever, amen.

[Lilly]

I'll start with the first song in the series...

My Immortal
by Evanescence

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Because your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just to real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
But now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voiced it chased away all the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just to real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
And though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

Wow. It kind of hits you when you actually type it out.

Thanks so much, francis! I think we cross-posted. I'll update the first post with the link to your post.

And here's another favorite of mine...

All Fall Down
by One Republic

Step out the door and it feels like rain
That's the sound, that's the sound, on your windowpane
Take to the streets, but you can't ignore
That's the sound, that's the sound, you're waiting for

If ever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
That's where you'll find me (yeah)

God love your soul and your aching bones
Take a breath, take a step, meet me down below
Everyone's the same, our fingers to our toes
We just can't get it right, but we're on the road

If ever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
That's where you'll find me

Lost till you're found
Swim till you drown
Know that we all fall down
Love till you hate
Strong till you break
Know that we all fall down

If ever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
That's where you'll find me

Lost till you're found
Swim till you drown
Know that we all fall down
Love till you hate
Strong till you break
Know that we all fall down

All fall down (x6)

Lost till you're found
Swim till you drown
Know that we all fall down
Love till you hate
Strong till you break
Know that we all fall down

*Copied from CD liner notes

[Lilly]

Together
by The Kin

All it takes is an honest mistake
Now I find you here
You've been here before
You tripped over your shadow

Why did you run
Why did you run
When I'm right here

It's all gonna be the same
When you get there
Now that we see the signs
Can we walk this line TOGETHER
Now that we know it's time
Can we walk this line TOGETHER

Late September, all I remember is you dear
With falling leaves I get back
On my knees to surrender

This is the day we come to say
All of the pain has come and
Gone away
This is the one wing dove
Today we come TOGETHER

*Copied from the CD liner notes

---------------------------------------------------------


And I never noticed the reference to "late September" before.

All the World
by Fauxliage

I'll break you down
I'll take you down down
Fill you with sadness
Make your life madness

I'm having a hard time
I'm making you do the hard time too
I'm stuck in a bad way
And I'm gonna make you pay for it

Give me a mile
I'll take a hundred miles
Such a mistake
Sorry you made

I know you're here
I know you're gone
I never asked you to stay
I'm waking up baby now tell are you okay?


*Copied from the CD liner notes

[Lilly]

Let It Go
by Fauxliage

I'll begin to let you go
When the sunlight melts the snow
Every night I drive away from you
I see the mountains I have yet to move

And you there
You don't care
I wonder if you

Wanted me like I wanted you
It's a lonely truth
That I can't change you
And you sure can't change me

It's hard as hell tonight to sleep
To close my eyes
Would be admitting my defeat

And you there
You don't care
I wonder if you

Wanted me like I wanted you
It's a lonely truth
That I can't change you
And you sure can't change me

Are you wanting me like I wanted you?
It's a lonely truth
That I can't change you

And you there
You don't care
I wonder if

You wanted me like I wanted you
It's a lonely truth
That I can't change you

Wanted me like I wanted you
It's a lonely truth
That I can't change you
And you sure can't change me

One of my favorites

Hungry Like the Wolf
by Duran Duran

Dark in the city night is a wire
Steam in the subway the earth is a fire
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do, do do
Woman you want me give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do, do do

In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Smell like I sound, I'm lost in a crowd
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line, in discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Stalked in the forest too close to hide
I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do, do do
Hot blood drumming on your skin it's so tight
You feel my heat I'm just a moment behind
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do, do do

In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf

Burning the ground I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
I smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt I'm after you,
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Burning the ground I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf

[darkstarrising]

And one more

To Hell with the Devil
by Jim Bianco

To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you
My mind ain't level, my heart's unsettled
Foot in the grave, foot on the pedal
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you

A storm won't stop the wheels
Of this hot machine
A storm won't stop the wheels
Of this hot machine
I fight throught the flood, the rain and the mud
With the pulse in the blood, the force of the metal
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you

Angel in the backseat, thunder on the radio
Steady on the concrete, heavy as a heart beat slow

To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you
To hell with the devil
I'm selling my soul to you

Thanks, dsr! I updated the first post with the links to your lyrics.

Keep My Heart
by Deep Sounds

You throw my love around
You treat me like a clown
But oh, what can I do
I'm so hung up on you
You leave me feeling tired
My telephone is wired
To your expensive calls
But you don't care at all
So why do I keep my heart for you

If only you would see
Just how it frightens me
To be alone again
You use to be my friend
I'm like a little girl
Trapped in your busy world
You just can't keep a date
You're always running late
So why, why do I keep my heart for you

This is my last goodbye
But will it catch your eye
To see me walk away
Would you find words to make me stay
Cause though I feel so sure
I want for nothing more
Than you to fall apart
And mend my broken heart
So why, why do I keep my heart for you

Oh tell me why, why do I keep my heart for you

[Lilly]

Into Dust
by Mazzy Star

Still falling
Breathless and on again
Inside today
Beside me today

Around, broken in two
Till your eyes shed
Into dust
Like two strangers
Turning into dust
Till my hand shook
With the weight of fear

I could possibly be fading
Or have something more to gain*
I could feel myself growing colder
I could feel myself under your feet
Under your feet

It was you
Breathless and torn
I could feel my eyes turning into dust
And two strangers
Turning into dust
Turning into dust

*Lyric websites disagree on several phrases in the song. Even though all of them have the words "to gain" here, I strongly suspect that's not correct. It doesn't feel right with the other words. I'm going to continue researching it.

Wrap Me in Dreams
by Deep Sounds

Lord, let me know
Where the dreamers all go
When the night brings the sleep to their eyes

Adrift on a cloud
Far away from the crowd
Where there’s nothing to trouble their minds

I long to go
Where the dreamers all know
Only fools work their lives for a dime

For once you begin
There’ll be no way to win
And these riches won’t buy back your time

So wrap me in dreams
I’ve no care how it seems
I’ll be drifting away on a breeze

To a place that I know
By a coconut grove
Where the ocean just kisses the trees

So lord, let me know
Where the dreamers all go
I’ve no care for this world and its schemes

(Mmmm) Sing me to sleep
With my heart so to keep
And remember to wrap me in dreams

Remember to wrap me in dreams


----------------------------------------------

I love this one. These lyrics weren't available anywhere that I could find, so this one's all on me. I may actually add it elsewhere.

Shine
by Andy Stochansky

Get up, get up, get up, get up
Lift your head
C'mon, c'mon
Get up out of bed
Today's the day you hold the world with your song

Go now, go now, go now
Help escalate
Angels come down and help with this parade
To hear the one whose words will ring, please let him sing, let him be heard

This is the time
This is the day that we've been waiting for
All the world will stop to watch you shine

Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now
Sing your hymn
This is the new national anthem
We will all stand on guard to let you be heard

Let go, let go, let go
All the cannons
How beautiful this world has become
Now everyone believes what I believe, that these words should be sung

This is the time
This is the day that we've been waiting for
All the world will stop to watch you shine

(repeat)

And if you fall
And if you fall
And if you ... believe in it, then yes it will come true

This is the time
This is the day that we've been waiting for
All the world will stop to watch you shine

(repeat)

******************************************
This is my favorite song of all the ML tunes because I truly believe this is Alex's song.

All these lyrics I'm gonna post are from my iTunes library. Some I pasted from lyric sites and some through the iTunes "get lyrics" function (not sure that's even still available because I haven't upgraded my iTunes since Apple forced its "iCloud" B.S. on everyone).
