Tell me your name, I will write it on my hand

Hold it there as long as I can

And as it fades, it will fall into my skin

Then I'll hold you always within

Oh my dear, by the light of the moon

I don't feel so afraid of you

I can say all the words I've wanted to

Dear, by the light of the moon

I wouldn't blame you if you walked away

Or you stood there with nothing to say

I had to tell you, just get it off my chest

Guess it's up to you what happens next

Oh my dear, by the light of the moon

I don't feel so afraid of you

I can say all the words I've wanted to

Dear, by the light of the moon

Usually, I'm just too nervous

Trembling knees, fingers blue

You would be my only purpose

I wouldn't ask the same of you

I wouldn't ask the same of you

Oh my dear, by the light of the moon

I don't feel so afraid of you

I can say all the words I've wanted to

Dear, by the light of the moon

Tell me your name, I will write it on my hand
