It was only yesterday
I can remember my loneliness
Until I saw my sunshine
Going down across the way
The moon shines bright
Against those evening clouds
When they clear and steer away
That’s where majestic go and fly
My shadows circle and die
Even they utter and cry
No matter how hard you try
You can’t have all your dreams
An occasional reckless scream
In the distance I try to listen
Mixed morals sound and glisten
Shut my eyes while I try
The suns usual rotation
A God or natural creation
Understanding Life and above
Is like capturing your love
Even those that taught you so
Tell you not to lie but theirs glow
Whether it’s a songbird or a crow
Sometimes you got to let it flow
The sky always waits
No matter how bad the wake
Never ever trying to take
You, me, and nothing more
My mind toggles and boggles
Good and bad being smuggled
Trying to erase and start anew
What’s left that I can see?
You said there's nothing to fear
Even though I was never held close,
It doesn't matter my heart was splattered
and nailed up on plaster
Shooting star across the way
Reminds me you didn't stay
So I’ll never forget
That my sunshine’s gone away

Shooting star across the way
Reminds me you didn't stay
So I’ll never forget
