Moonwalk Memory
by elizabeth
Lyrics
Verse 1
Started small in a crowded room
Baby shoes and a borrowed tune
Mama said, “Keep that fire close”
I learned to smile when the hard days grew
No crown first, just a stubborn heart
Every scratch had to play its part
Pre-Chorus
Then the floor came alive
When I found my stride
Hands went up, I felt it
My whole life opened wide
Chorus
Moonwalk memory
Take me back
Moonwalk memory
Heart in black
Moonwalk memory
I was born to move
Moonwalk memory
Now I shine right through
Verse 2
On the road with a packed-up dream
Late-night miles and a changing scene
Every mirror showed a different me
But I kept that child in the melody
Tried to fall, but I stayed on time
Made the hurt look good in a line
Pre-Chorus
Then the floor came alive
When I found my stride
Hands went up, I felt it
My whole life opened wide
Chorus
Moonwalk memory
Take me back
Moonwalk memory
Heart in black
Moonwalk memory
I was born to move
Moonwalk memory
Now I shine right through
Bridge
When the curtains dropped
I was still that kid
With the same big hope
And the things I did
All the scars, all the cheers
All the miles, all the years
Still I hear that beat
And I’m standing here
Chorus
Moonwalk memory
Take me back
Moonwalk memory
Heart in black
Moonwalk memory
I was born to move
Moonwalk memory
Now I shine right through
