A shot at the moon
Izadora Hoffmann
A shot at the Moon
The city sleeps beneath a silver haze
Another lonely night bleeds into days
I trace the constellations on the glass
Hoping this long, silent waiting will pass
Every breath I take feels like a tide
Pulling me to where you might reside
I sent a signal out across the blue
Just a fragile whisper meant for you
A shot to the Moon to find you
Running through the stars to embrace you
Darling, the Sun is already rising
And I'm still waiting for you
I've mapped the darkness, memorized the deep
The promises the silent heavens keep
They say true love defies the pull of time
But this distance feels like a steep, slow climb
I feel the gravity of what we share
A constant anchor, though you're nowhere there
If I could cross this void in just one leap
It's your sweet safety that my soul would seek
A shot to the Moon to find you
Running through the stars to embrace you
Darling, the Sun is already rising
And I'm still waiting for you
The twilight fades, the colors start to bloom
Chasing shadows from this quiet room
I don't need the dawn to light my way
Just one glimpse of you to start my day
Every tick of the clock is a cosmic mile
But I'd go forever just to see you smile
A shot to the Moon to find you
Running through the stars to embrace you
Darling, the Sun is already rising
And I'm still waiting for you
Still waiting, for you
The Sun is up, but my world's still new
Just waiting, for you
