If we were all planets,
You would be the sun,
And I would be Mercury.
Cycling around you 360 degrees,
Eager to exemplify my
Dedication to your gravity.
I would say one thousand good mornings,
And one thousand good nights,
In the time it takes the earth to make,
One full rotation around your flame.
But,
We are not all planets.
And you are not the sun.
I am not Mercury.
And I cannot tell you
One thousand good mornings,
And one thousand good nights,
In the time it takes earth to make
One full trip around the sun
With a gravity, we are too small to even notice
But,
If we were all planets
You would be the sun.

If we were all planets,
You would be the sun,
And I would be Mercury.
Cycling around you 360 degrees,
Eager to exemplify my
Dedication to your gravity.
I would say one thousand good mornings,
And one thousand good nights,
In the time it takes the earth to make,
One full rotation around your flame.
But,
We are not all planets.
And you are not the sun.
I am not Mercury.
And I cannot tell you
One thousand good mornings,
And one thousand good nights,
In the time it takes earth to make
One full trip around the sun
With a gravity, we are too small to even notice
But,
If we were all planets
You would be the sun.
