They say no one’s perfect, and I know that’s true
But you make it feel like a lie
Try to wrap my head around the universe
Is what loving you is like

Imagine the way it feels
It nearly kills me when you lose the fight
Watching your shadow try to turn out all the lights

When you tell yourself you don’t like who you are
Remember that you filled my darkest sky with stars
So darling, don’t forget who you’re talking to
Don’t give up on him yet, the boy who hung the moon

I don’t mean to put you on a pedestal
Or to set you up to fall
Maybe it’s just hard to see my saving grace
With his back against the wall

Even here at your lowest low
Your fire glows and somehow keeps me warm
Can’t change the weather, but I’ll hold you through the storm

When you tell yourself you don’t like who you are
Remember that you filled my darkest sky with stars
So darling, don’t forget who you’re talking to
Don’t give up on him yet, the boy who hung the moon

The boy who kissed me first and loved me from the start
I know what he’s worth, the boy who has my heart
So darling, don’t forget who you’re talking to
Don’t give up on him yet, he’ll be back up there soon
The boy who hung the moon

After the show, at that party that night In the glow of the sapphire light I could only see your face and nothing else I went straight for your hand and I took you away …
