When the moon hits the land

Because goodbye means forever

And forever feels too long

So don’t let the last thing spoken

Sound like I am gone

Just say you’ll see me

When the moon hits the land

When the night spills silver

Across your open hands

When the quiet feels endless

And the world moves on too fast

Know I’m somewhere in the stillness

Where nothing truly passed

⸻

Pre-Chorus

I know it may be years

Before our hands align

But love like this

Doesn’t live inside of time

⸻

Chorus

So don’t say goodbye

Because goodbye means forever

Just say I’ll see you

When the moon hits the land

When the sun sets in the east

And the sky forgets its blue

I’ll be waiting on the other side

Of paradise for you

I may be out of sight

But I’m not gone

⸻

Verse 2

How do you breathe in rooms

That don’t remember you?

How does the morning rise

Without the warmth you grew?

I hate to leave this story

Before the final page

But some things slip like water

We were never meant to change

If staying was a promise

I would have held the line

I would have fought the daylight

For one more borrowed time

⸻

Pre-Chorus

And when the nights grow heavy

And you can’t find your way

Close your eyes

I’m closer than you think

⸻

Bridge

At the edge of every evening

When the air turns cold and still

You’ll hear me in the silence

Like a name the wind won’t spill

Not heaven, not forever

Just love that lingers on

Like footprints in the shoreline

After everyone is gone

⸻

Final Chorus (Soft Build)

So don’t say goodbye

Because goodbye means forever

Just say I’ll see you

When the moon hits the land

When the sun sets in the east

And the stars fall into place

I’ll be the light you don’t see

Till we meet at the bridge someday

I may be out of sight

But I’m not gone

(soft repeat)

I’m not gone…
