Waiting on my slumber
They rest upon my pane
My tiny moonbeam friends
Clinging to my rain
And when I lift my shade
They quietly fall through
They land upon my wall
Sparkling of blue
And when I cry
They sing to me
My little lunar friends
For every hurt my heart can feel
They try to make amends
One of them I know
I call him by his name
He has a special cause
To keep this child insane
They make me warm inside
When everything is cold
My heart is burning young
My mind grows old
The painted stage
It comes alive at night
When all the world is dead
And I become the sole audience
And they linger in my head
Now follow me my loves
Everywhere I go
Shine on every hair
My oxy and nitro
We have the world tonight
So keep me company
And when the sun comes
We will be history
Now watch me in my troubled sleep
My spirits of the night
And be nocturnal for me still
Be gone with the light
Be gone with the light
