"So... you wanna get started?" I say, breaking the silence.

"Sure."

I press play on my phone and the music starts

The Moonlark starts.

"I'm trying to hold my breath

Let it stay this way
Can't let this moment end
You set off a dream in me
Getting louder now
Can you hear it echoing?
Take my hand
Will you share this with me?
'Cause darling, without you

All the shine of a thousand spotlights

All the stars we steal from the night sky
Will never be enough
Never be enough
Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world but it'll
Never be enough
Never be enoughFor me
Never, never
Never, never
Never, for me
For me
Never enough
Never enough
Never enough
For me
For me
For me

All the shine of a thousand spotlights
All the stars we steal from the night sky
Will never be enough
Never be enough
Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world but it'll
Never be enough
Never be enough

For me
Never, never
Never, never
Never, for me
For me
Never enough
Never, never
Never enough
Never, never
Never enough
For me
For me
For me

For me."

The Moonlark's voice is as rich and full as I remembered.

I close my eyes and soak it in.

"Whoa. That's... amazing."

Moonlark blushes. "Thanks."

"KEEFE!!!!!" My dad's rumbling voice yells.  "KEEP YOUR DOORS OPEN!!"

I roll my eyes. Moonlark giggles. "Love you too, Dad!" I yell back.
