Howl for You

The fire's still warm but you're already gone

Another full moon, another lonely dawn

I wait in silence as your shadow grows

You said it's safer if I don't get close

You think I don't see the pain in your eyes

The way you tremble when the wildness climbs

But I hear the truth in every breath you hide

You fear your heart more than the beast inside

I hear you howling at the moon

Ahhh-oooohhh... Ahhh-oooouuuuuuuhhh

You think the curse will tear us in two

But I still see the man in you

Don't stray, don't fade into the gloom

I'd rather run where shadows bloom

Than lose you to the full moon's tune

Ahhh-oooohhh... Ahhh-oooouuuuuuuhhh

Your clothes are torn, your scent is pine and ash

You said, "Stay back—this love can't last"

But I'm not afraid of what you've become

The monster's heart still beats like one

You begged the night to take your soul

To keep me safe, to stay alone

But what if love is something wild?

What if I too could bear the howl?

I hear you howling at the moon

Ahhh-oooohhh... Ahhh-oooouuuuuuuhhh

You think this curse can break us through

But I'd become the beast for you

I'll bleed beneath that silver bloom

And rise in fur, in fang, in truth

If loving you means howling too—

Ahhh-oooohhh... Ahhh-oooouuuuuuuhhh

Now we are howling at the moon

Ahhh-oooohhh... Ahhh-oooouuuuuuuhhh

No fear, no shame, no more taboo

Your curse is now my promise too

We hunt, we run, beneath the moon

Two shadows dancing in the gloom

Together bound by love and doom—

Ahhh-oooohhh... Ahhh-oooouuuuuuuhhh
