D                Am
Ain't enough to say
     B7
That I think of you
Em               D
Words can never do
                A           F#7
The things that I need them to
Bm                Am6
Tell me when I'll get more
        Em       Gm
Than a dream of you
           D                  Gm
'Cause a dream is just a dream
                    D
And I don't wanna sleep tonight

  A      Bm
(Ah, ah, ah)
         Bm
(Ah, ah, ah) Do anything to make you stay
                              Bm
Do anything to start the day again
         Bm
(Ah, ah, ah) If I had everything my way
                               Bm
We'd travel back and forth and back again

Chorus:
                 G                           F#7
If only I could let you go, if only I could be alone
              Bm      Am6
I just wanna stay in moonlight, this is our time in
     Em
the spotlight
                 G                           F#7
If only I could let you go, if only I could be alone
              Bm      Am6
I just wanna stay in moonlight, this is our time in
     Em
the spotlight (Why?)

It's like you never even left
I need a moment, just a moment (Ah, ah, ah)
Blow me a kiss, I catch your breath
Give me a moment, so devoted

Chorus:
If only I could let you go
If only I could be alone
I just wanna stay in the moonlight
This is our time, in the spotlight (Why?)
If only I could let you go
If only I could be alone
I just wanna stay in the moonlight
This is our time, in the spotlight (Why?)

                         G
Can't keep the sun from rising
Can't keep the heart from beating
                      F#7
Can't stop you from believing
                        Bm
Can't keep the sun from rising
                          Am6
Can't keep the air we're breathing
                           Em
Can't stop your heart from leaving
                         G
Can't keep the sun from rising
Can't keep the heart from beating
                      F#7
Can't stop you from believing
                         Bm
Can't keep the sun from rising
                         Am6
Can't keep the air we're breathing
                            Em
Can't stop your heart from leaving

Chorus:
If only I could let you go
If only I could be alone
I just wanna stay in the moonlight
This is our time, in the spotlight (Why?)
If only I could let you go
If only I could be alone
I just wanna stay in the moonlight
This is our time, in the spotlight

(Tell me when I'll get more than a dream of you)
If a dream is just a dream and a dream is just a
kiss
Then tell me what it means, tell me what this is
(Tell me when I'll get more than a dream of you)
And if a touch is just a touch, then a touch just
ain't enough
Tell me what it means, tell me you're in love
(Tell me when I'll get more than a dream of you)
If a dream is just a dream and a dream is just a
kiss
Then tell me what it means, tell me what this is
(Tell me when I'll get more than a dream of you)
And if a touch is just a touch, then a touch just
ain't enough
Tell me what it means, tell me you're in love
Tell me when I'll get more than a dream of you
Tell me when I'll get more than a dream of you
Tell me when I'll get more than a dream of you
(Can't keep the sun from rising)
(Can't keep the heart from beating)
(Can't stop you from believing)
Tell me when I'll get more than a dream of you
(Can't keep the sun from rising)
(Can't keep the air we're breathing)
(Can't stop your heart from leaving)
