Only you and the sun can turn the sky on
There are few things in this world
That a man can rely on
When this world grows cold, the sun's very fire gone
On the day that you must go
That's the day I will die on
Only you and the sun can fight the moonlight
Beat back the sadness
The madness of midnight
Sanctify the gladness, steadfastness of daylight
Bookend the badness
Upend the dark night
Only you and the sun can sing destiny's song
The darkest of your hours
Are brightest before dawn
If fate were unfaithful, or otherwise forlorn
Life itself would still be grateful
For the day that you were born
Only you and the sun are deserving of twilight
A state of solemn grace
And harbinger of starlight
Now face to face with you by the firelight
I pray that I wake
Beside you at first light
