lyrics

When light’s too bright, we cannot see
A sound too loud, we cannot hear
Plants too close, cannot grow
Step away, step away, my dear
Step away, step away, my dear.

When we think we know, we know nothing
When we are too close we cannot see.
When we say it all, we say nothing.
Step away, step away, my dear.
Step away, step away, my dear.

And watch me as you watch the moon.
Give me space to disappear.
I’ll wax and wane, but never leave.
I’ll stay the same, but always change.
Step away, step away my dear.

The moon knows the earth from miles away.
Please see my whole self, not just this part.
Please see my whole self, not just this part.

The moon pulls inwards, and stirs the tides.
Now you pull inwards, and I’ll pull inwards
And our tide will rise.

The moon sees the earth from miles away.
Their love is as clear, as it is far.
Please see my whole self, not just this part.
Please see my whole self, not just this part.

And watch me as you watch the moon.
Give me space to disappear.
I’ll wax and wane, but never leave.
I’ll stay the same, but always change.
Step away, step away my dear.
