Lyrics
Did you ever lay out on the dock at 4AM
Thinking how the moon would rise
Upon the darker depth of the night inside
And did you think about me then from time to time
I think about you with that easy smile the day you took my hand
And begged me to stay awhile
So did you follow the moon
Leave the heart that loved you best
In search of some fun and fleeting happiness
And did you ever bring it down when you got there
When you reached the farthest shore
Did you find the door you were looking for
Did you ever know that love could make you cry so long
Tonight out underneath your moon
I heard the river break with the night in song
And my heart sang along
The thing about you was how you came free
Before the magic paid and you let go of me
Now did you follow the moon
Leave the heart that loved you best
In search of some fun and fleeting happiness
And did you ever bring it down when you got there
When you reached the farthest shore
Did you find the door you were looking for
I keep hoping you'll be staying
I keep asking
You're not saying
I keep wondering if you'll try to
Cut away all me inside you
Did you follow the moon
Leave the heart that loved you best
In search of some fun and fleeting happiness
And did you ever bring it down when you got there
When you reached the farthest shore
Did you find the door you were looking for
