Daylight, I dream of you softly
\ I wrote you a letter that will never reach you
\ In Montreal, the days are much colder there
\ Now you grow older there without me
\ On the lookout, baby, won't you look out?
\ A car full of raccoons, I think that I'm crazy
\ And downtown, the bar lights illuminate
\ Lost in a cityscape where I try to find you

You walk like a miracle, bathing in starlight
\ Your voice burning holes in the frame
\ I danced in the parking lot, cried in the taxi home
\ 'Cause I still remember your name

And oh, I'm not in love anymore, anymore
\ But I will keep you close to me forever

Moonlight, I dream of you endlessly
\ Drowning in reverie, waiting for morning
\ Dim light, I'm drunk at the bar again
\ Holding a stranger's hand, a crowd with no faces

And there you are, beautiful just like the first time
\ You reach out, I'm shaking again
\ You're gone in a moment, you leave me alone
\ But I swear you were real in my hands

And oh, I'm not in love anymore, anymore
\ But I will keep you close to me forever

Well, I know these words might mean nothing now
\ I'm stuck in this ghost town
\ Your softness still haunts me
\ Someday I'll find my way out of here
\ If you don't change your mind, my dear
\ I'll take you with me
