lyrics

In the moonlight your silhouette
Glows against the dark, I trace it
You are a wolf boy
A little wild and sad in the way that I like

You stack up the wood to keep us warm
It’s gonna be a long winter
In the moonlight
your silhouette like silver

On your shoulders, with rounded grace
There’s a weight you try to hide away
Though you can lean in
And take a little breath

I watch the wood pile grow row by row
Your focus singular so
You don’t step too far
Into the shadow

Come on let’s go down to the waves
Let the water take us out and back again
Let’s let go of the ways
That we’ve been led astray

It isn’t easy to follow through,
To stick to a plan once you’ve made it
You want to wander,
Howl at the moon

And in the wandering you think you’ll find
A sliver of something better
It isn’t easy and it ain’t made for you

Come on let’s go down to the waves
Let the water take us out and back again
Let’s let go of the ways
That we’ve been led astray

Moonlight lives so close to dark
I look to see if you’re still with me

I will not leave, I will not go
I will stay here as long as I need to

Moonlight lives so close to dark
I look to see if you’re still with me

Let's go down to the waves
Let the water take out and back again
Let's let go of the ways
That we've been led astray
