Lyrics
moonlight in your room
beautiful, crude
light stolen from the day
white, like bone
silent, cold
tangled with us in the bed clothes
your sheets around my thighs
my ribs around my spine
my mouth falls open in confession
"love" is the word I use
that's all it takes to tell you
everything, everything that I feel
everything, everything
in a word
pausing to wet my lips
absolved by the darkness
I marshal up my courage
the moonlight on your face
our fingers interlaced
my mouth falls open in a question
"love" is the word I use
that's all it takes to ask for
everything, everything that I want
everything, everything
in a word
lying in wait
for your reply to find its shape
you gather thoughts from the moonlight
your skin against my own
my defenses overthrown
your mouth falls open in confession
"never" is the word you use
that's all it takes to tell me
everything, everything I can't have
everything, everything
in a word
