Backstory:
Sam came in with a melody as he always does and Sarah shined up the melody as she always beautifully does. In this song we didn't have a hook and really just followed the feeling of the song. The line Stars around the moon came to me while we were writing the chorus and that stuck as the title.
Lyrics:
Stars Around The Moon
John Cirillo (ASCAP)/Sarah Spencer (ASCAP)/Sam Gyllenhaal (BMI)
If they play our song tonight
You know I’m gonna wanna dance
And when they turn out the lights
You know I’m gonna wanna grab your hand,
Pull you in
Kiss you lips
Hold you close
Try to remember this, cause
If they play our song tonight
You know I’ll wanna dance
Where there’s smoke there’s always fire
Where there’s sky, there’s blue
Where there’s lightning there’ll be thunder
Where there’s lies, there’s truth
Where there’s vinyl there’ll be spinning
Round and round the room
Like stars around the moon
Where there’s me, there’s you
I only had half a heart
Skipping every other beat
You were the missing part
In every other memory
Thought I knew
What love was
How it acts,
What it does, but
I only had half a heart
Skipping every other beat
Bridge:
Like a needle needs a groove (Like Fireflies and June)
Ooh
You and I are living proof
