"Send Me The Moon" lyrics - SARA BAREILLES

Holding my breath
Last one I've got left 'til I see you
Deliver my heart
With the pieces and parts of me left
Every last day seemed to
Carry the weight of a lifetime
Watch from the ground
As the gold fluttered down from the sky

[Chorus:]
Sweet sun
Send me the moon
Empty the skies out
Bringing me one step closer to you
Send it soon
And I will breathe in, breathe out
Until you come in and out of view
Of view

Inches away from you
Scared what I'll take from you, darling
I can live with your ghost
If you say that's the most that I'll get
Darkness to light
Moved from day into night to be near you
Still here I stand
I am sinking like sand in your sea

[Chorus:]
Sweet sun
Send me the moon
Empty the skies out
Bringing me one step closer to you
Send it soon
And I will breathe in, breathe out
Until you come in and out of view

[Post-Chorus:]
Oh, you already do

Never you mind
Where the evening should find us together
Distance can't take
What is hidden here safe in my chest
I'll wait for the day when
We finally say now or never
'Til then I'll be here, wanting more
As I settle for atmosphere

[Chorus:]
Sweet sun
Send me the moon
Empty the skies out
Bringing me one step closer to you
Send it soon
And I will breathe in, breathe out
Until you come in and out
I will breathe in, breathe out
Until you come in
I will breathe in, breathe out
(Just breathe, in, out, breathe in)
Until you come in and out of view
Of view
