Moonlight's on the rise
So I may write you later
Sleep is on its way here
I don't want my dreams of you

All the ways I sinned
I guess did know better
I never knew it mattered
Until I mattered to you

You saved my heart somehow
And I cannot repay you
A painful conversation to be had
I recognize

I appreciate you saying
Hello there at the party
It sure was good to see you
Good to look you in your eye

I used to wish we'd sing
Like my mother and my daddy
Put a nice rose color
To my tangled, fearful mind

You saved my heart somehow
And I cannot repay you
Ain't a conversation
Where I don't apologize

You saved my heart somehow
And I cannot repay you
Ain't a conversation to be had
I recognize

Moonlight's on the rise
So I may write you later
Sleep is on its way here
I don't want my dreams of you
