John Close - music / marge

you've almost given me the moon

Many come along that want it all
Their price is high while they let you fall
You are a part of Heaven I happened to find
Making this world better a friend for all mankind

It's yours now too take it to heart
Sooner than soon
There was no life dark covered light
Without a tune
You've almost given me
You've almost given me
You've almost given me the moon

When I look up I see stars shining
Tears make reflections when I'm looking down
But until you came my way I could only say things
That I was feeling without a sound

It's yours now too take it to heart
Sooner than soon
There was no life dark covered light
Without a tune
You've almost given me
You've almost given me
You've almost given me the moon

Thank you for this treasure
You so freely shared
Love like this can't be measured
I just want you to know how much I really cared

(instrumental)

It's yours now too take it to heart
Sooner than soon
There was no life dark covered light
Without a tune
You've almost given me
You've almost given me
You've almost given me the moon
You've almost given me
You've almost given me
You've almost given me the moon
