Taking You Up Into The Moon
Molly's Midnight Villains
Like the flicker of warm firelight in fall
Like a long walk that doesn’t have to go anywhere at all
Like the feeling of warm blankets in the cold
Like the idea of waking up and feeling bold
Like the idea of fancy goat cheese
Or unexpected dessert, like bourbon and ice cream
Or how Turkish Delight always sounded
So great in the Chronicles of Narnia
I didn’t know before, how could I know before
I didn’t know that that’s how being with you
Would feel
Like looking forward to a party with all our friends
When in reality you and I
Will just talk to each other the whole time anyway
That’s what we always do anyway
Like living in a magic fairy land
Like feeling more alive than I can stand
Like I'm a damn wizard on a mountaintop
Oh
I didn’t know before, how could I know before
I didn’t know that that’s how being with you
Would feel
Like the notion of a serpent filling the entire Ohio bank to bank
Mysterious and wild and rearing its head to bless us both
Like the idea of taking you up into the moon
Catch me up and kiss me
Take me out of the city
Maybe we’ll keep talking about books and music and fantasy
Maybe we’ll talk about those things forever
I didn’t know before, how could I know before
I didn’t know how could either of us know
I didn’t know before, how could I know before
I didn’t know that that’s how being with you
Would feel
And here I thought that you knew everything
And I guess I thought that I knew everything
Maybe we’ll laugh about this
Forever
