Analysis of moonlight



I was in love with you
with your little smile, and everything you do
always ran against all my thoughts
oh how I couldn't be against you.

All beautiful lies you said to me
gave me butterflies
i close my eyes
and pretend a scenario of me and you.

I was in love with you
every wrong thing you do
made me cry but baby
I was still In love with you.

Remember the day ,you told me
how you were looking for a girl
as nice and pretty as me
still are the words I hear in the moonlight.

I was in love with you, and you never knew
everything I sacrificed just to be close to you.
all moments captured in a cage
of sky with stars of love
a love between me and you.
