about

When I met her on Independence Day in 2016 I was immediately smitten. After a few more friendly encounters I understood that she would create a significant shift in my life, but I was having a hard time remembering her name. Isn't there a song with it in it?

lyrics

The moonlight guides me at night
It shows me where I want to go
But you dear, you put an end to that all
You're a candle

I'm drawn in by your light
It changes my aim
My dear, I think I should tell you
I'm a moth to the flame

My darling you're a lover
I hope that you're my friend
I'm a moth dear, so I know this to be true
All things come to an end

Alicia, Alicia
I long to call your name
Oh my darling Alicia
I'm a moth to the flame

A moth, dear, is a fragile thing
And it easily catches fire
My dear, I think you can tell by now
That is all that I desire

I'm drawn in by your light
It changes my aim
Oh my darling Alicia
I'm a moth to the flame
