Lyrics:
You told them that I hung the moon
It was a lonely sliver hanging from the sky
I said I put it there for you
I didn’t think that it would make you cry
Don’t stop, don’t stop for me now
Don’t stop, don’t stop for me now
My recurring dream of you
Starlight in your eyes and music everywhere
I am dancing close to you
There are no days or nights we’ve left behind
Don’t stop, don’t stop for me now
Don’t stop, don’t stop for me now
When you’re running, you’re running far away
And you don’t know what to do with all my love
Don’t stop for me now
Why is it so hard to say that you need me
The way that I need you
There are no days, there are no nights, we’ve left them all behind
And you can run so far that I won’t reach
There are no places I won’t find you
Don’t stop, don’t stop for me now
Don’t stop, don’t stop for me now
You keep running, yeah you’re running far away
When all I want to do is be with you my love
You can run so far, run so far, my love
By the light of the moon I will get to you somehow
So don’t stop for me now

Behind the Song:
DAN HASELTINE: “‘Don’t Stop’ is a love song about love at its most innocent. To me, that song, more than any
other, on the record is more about a feeling than about a specific circumstance or a larger story. It’s what being in
love feels like.”
