the sun and moon, like children of the summer, are
in perpetual chase of each other
one after another we watch them in wonder
the moon reflects the sun in its glorious light
and the sun with its fire brings the earth to life
each one serves a purpose ? though the game may seem in vain
though the moon never catches the sun ? the love remains the same
the sun leads while the moon follows behind
and the moonlit night sky is there to remind
the lovers of their promise, while they lay staring above
at the celestial monument to the meeting of hearts
that heave in unison though in chambers apart
and while she lay staring at the stars above
she remembers the one that she left behind
the liquor of the moonlight intoxicates her mind
as it mirrors that of the sun ? she too remembers the one
she thought she had forgotten ? but the blood is treacherous
and the light is full of illusions ? those shadow ridden delusions
what could have been, what if we had been, rather than the other
too many possibilities to run down in the equation
its like a mystery that has no solution
no need to worry about the past
just another night for me to get past
he wasn?t good for me ? and I was too good for him
yeah ? that?s it ? but what if?
Naw ? that is just that devil whispering
Trying to catch me tripping
This moon is crazy and maybe I am too
Cuz I was dumb enough to believe his love jive too
Oh well, tommorow is another day
And who knows what possibilities lay
In the path ahead ? only this time I?ll be more careful
About where I tread
Cuz it ain?t the moon ? but that blind lunar dependency I dread
So alone,
I alone,
must forge ahead.
(but still, I can?t help but be a lil blue ?
cuz though I may shine like the sun outside -
deep inside ? my soul yearns to reflect like the moon)
