(Skip Ewing/Tim Johnson)



Don't think I'm crazy

I know it's not the most romantic thing

It's cold and cloudy

The moon is just a fingernail up in the sky

But I thought that we could take a walk

And just enjoy what's there

And if we can't see it all

Well I don't care (just)



A sliver of the moon

Or a corner of a star

A little piece of romance

Keeps our love shining in our hearts

A twinkle in your eyes

Or a single firefly

That's all we need to make it right

Not meteors or northern lights

It only takes a sliver of the moon



Life's not the movies

Love isn't always like a song

No we're not perfect

But neither is this world we're living on

So we do the best with what we have

And it's true we don't have much

But somehow we always seem to find enough



A sliver of the moon

Or a corner of a star

A little piece of romance

Keeps our love shining in our hearts

A twinkle in your eyes

Or a single firefly

That's all we need to make it right

Not meteors or northern lights

It only takes a sliver of the moon



We're in the shadows

And the dark sometimes

But we know somewhere the light still shines

And somehow we will find



A sliver of the moon

Or a corner of a star

A little piece of romance

Keeps our love shining in our hearts

A twinkle in your eyes

Or a single firefly

That's all we need to make it right

Not meteors or northern lights

It only takes a sliver of the moon



Oh, it only takes a sliver of the moon
