“Moonlight” is about somebody you know very well changing unnaturally over time right in front of you and pushing you away, so you want to help bring them back to their original self.
[Verse 1]
She always has a smile
From morning to the night
The perfect poster child
That was once in my life
[Pre-Chorus]
A doll made out of glass
All her friends think that she's great
But I can see through it all
And she's about to break
[Chorus 1]
Remember last year when you told me
To always stay here and never leave me
The light from your eyes made it feel like
We-e-e-e were dancing in the moonlight
Remember last year when you told me
That these will be lifelong stories
The light from your eyes made it feel like
We-e-e-e were dancing in the moonlight
[Post-Chorus]
You-ou-ou-ou were dancing in the moonlight
And I, I, I, I was dancing in the moonlight
[Verse 2]
Now she lost her way
And she forgets to smile
Never gets a break
From this life in denial
[Pre-Chorus]
A doll made out of glass
All her friends think that she's great
But I can see through it all
And she's about to break, oh!
[Chorus 1]
Remember last year when you told me
To always stay here and never leave me
The light from your eyes made it feel like
We-e-e-e were dancing in the moonlight
Remember last year when you told me
That these will be lifelong stories
The light from your eyes made it feel like
We-e-e-e were dancing in the moonlight
[Post-Chorus]
You-ou-ou-ou were dancing in the moonlight
And I, I, I, I was dancing in the moonlight
[Bridge]
I, I, I, miss those me-mo-ries
We used to share, just you and me
[Chorus 2]
I remember last year when I told you
I would always stay here and never leave you
I told you the light in your eyes made it look like
We-e-e-e were dancing in the moonlight
Remember last year when you told me
To always stay here and never leave me (Dancing in the moonlight)
The light from your eyes made it feel like
We-e-e-e were dancing in the moonlight
[Outro]
The light from your eyes made it feel like
Dancing In the moonlight

“The story is about someone going through depression and seeing the way they’re changing and kind of that fake, alter personality. […] It’s about kind of walking down memory lane and remembering just last year of feeling so magical, like you were almost dancing in the moonlight.” (Youtube, music vid...
This was my first writing session with a producer/writer named Edo, who’s very talented. He actually produced a lot of my album. We later became friends, but at the time, I had no idea who he was and I was super duper awkward and super weird. I was like, “So do you wanna like write a song now?” Beca...
I just hope people can enjoy it. I want that with all my music. Whether someone takes away something from it, which is amazing, it’s like, “Wow this song changed my entire life, I’m so awake.” Or they are just like, “Yeah, that was really good,” like, “Now I have a great song to sing in the shower,”...
