The Moon and the Sky

Lyrics

I was the one
 I who could
 Pull in all the stars above
 Lay them on your feet
 And I gave you my love (ain't gon' let you go)
 ♪
 You are the one that got me started
 You coulda let me
 Love anyone, but I only wanted you
 So why did it make me cry?
 Why didn't you come get me one last time?
 You'll always know
 The reason why
 We couldn't have
 The moon and the sky
 You'll always know
 The reason why this love
 The reason why this love
 Ain't gon' let you go
 You laid me down and left me for lions
 Long, long time ago
 You left me there dyin'
 (Ain't gon' let you go)
 But you'll never let me go
 You'll always know
 The reason why
 We couldn't have
 The moon and the sky
 You'll always know
 The reason why this love
 The reason why this love
 Ain't gon' let you go
 You'll always know the reason why
 The song you heard will stay on your mind
 It ain't gon' let you go, no
 'Cause you have the moon
 And I, the endless sky
 You'll always know
 The reason why
 We couldn't have
 The moon and the sky
 You'll always know
 The reason why this love
 The reason why this love
 (Ain't gon' let you go)
 ♪
 (Ain't gon' let you go)
 You had the dreams in your palm (you'll always know)
 You had every star (the reason why)
 Every one of them twinklin' (we couldn't have)
 Baby what were you thinkin'? (the moon and the sky)
 (You'll always know)
 We had the moon and the sky above
 And I gave you my love
 
 I was the one
 I who could
 Pull in all the stars above
 Lay them on your feet
 And I gave you my love (ain't gon' let you go)
