Blue Moon Serenade

There is a cup on the windowsill

Still holding rain from yesterday

I kept your name behind my teeth Afraid it might break if

I gave it away

You sat beside me in the quiet

No need to ask me where I had been

One small touch, and all my walls Turned into paper-thin skin

And I don't have to be brave tonight

I don't have to turn to stone

You hold the room like a candle flame

And suddenly I'm not alone (ahhhh)

Love me where the hurting is Meet me where the water bends

I have been a house of closed doors You came in like

morning through them

If I fall, don't let me hide

If I cry, stay by my side

Love me where the hurting is And I will learn to love

again

(oh, I will

learn to

love again)

We do not rush the healing now

We let the silence take its seat

You draw a map across my palm To somewhere kind and incomplete

I never thought a fragile heart Could make a sound so bright

and true But every scar I tried to cover

Starts turning toward you

And I don't have to run this time I can let the

evening know

There is a place inside your arms Where my guarded heart lets

go (ahhhh)

Love me where the hurting is Meet me where the water bends

I have been a house of closed doors You came in like

morning through them

If I fall, don't let me hide

If I cry, stay by my side

Love me where the hurting is And I will learn to love

again

(oh, I will learn to love again) Lay down the weight

Lay down the war

I was not made To ache anymore Take all the years I

buried inside Turn them to tears

Then turn them to light

Love me

where the hurting is Meet me where the water bends I have

been a house of closed doors

You came in

like morning through them If I fall,

don't let me hide

If I cry, stay by my side Love me where the

hurting is And I will learn to love again (hummmm)
