There's a silver moon

Shining in the room

Where we sleep like spoons together

Lying in the dark

I can feel your heart

And it beats with mine forever



Coming from the street

You can feel the heat

As the city sleeps

In the silence

And the perfect light

Of a summers night

Is broken by the violence



Then a woman screams

And a baby cries

And someone's dream is shattered

When the nightmares dance

Before your eyes

They can leave you bruised and battered



Then I realise

That I'm by your side

And I'm listening to you breathing

And in this room

With the silver moon

You're something to believe in



There's a boy out there

With a crazy stare

And a gun to make a living

In a sea of hate

Where you can't think straight

In a world that's unforgiving



And it's all gone bad

In a world gone mad

And you're scared that you'll discover

That the one you love

And the one you trust

Is like all the others



Then I realise

That I'm by your side

And I'm listening to you breathing

And in this room

With the silver moon

You're something to believe in

You're something to believe in



And in this room

With the silver moon

You're something to believe in
