“Monsoon” is the first single from Elliott’s Out of the Blue – EP. The song gained popularity after being used in the TV show, The Fosters. The episode was called “Contact” and can be found closer to the end of the episode, where Callie is talking to Aaron on the swing outside of her home.
[Verse 1]
You can be the moon
I’ll be the sun
You leave too soon
We’ve barely just begun
We’ve barely just begun
[Verse 2]
I watch and I rise
But you control the tides
From the highest of the highs
You took me for a ride
You took me for a ride
[Chorus]
We’re going ‘round in circles
A force I cannot fight
‘Cause I am the day and you are the night
It’s in your nature to orbit close then far
I thought you could defy it
And be my shining star
My shining star
[Verse 3]
You let me shine through
To make the fullest of the moons
Took credit for my light
And the magic from my eyes
You took the magic from my eyes
[Chorus]
We’re going ‘round in circles
A force I cannot fight
‘Cause I am the day and you are the night
And it’s in your nature to orbit close then far
But I thought you could defy it
And be my shining star
My shining star
[Bridge]
Goodnight my stars
Goodnight my moon, moon
I see your waves and cry monsoon, soon
(I see your waves)
Goodnight my stars
Goodnight my moon, moon
I see your waves and cry monsoon, soon
[Ending]
Goodnight my stars
Goodnight my moon, moon
