Momma always said never to stare at the sun

she never said what to do when it’s inside someone

growing up I always looked forward to staring

long drives, to see the family, always trailing

Right on the tail of the sun

Without it I don’t know what I would’ve done

a world in darkness? How could that be?

That would be a life lived miserably

Daddy always said never to stare at the sun

But without, I don’t know what I would’ve done

growing up the sun was always so beautiful

how could someone not stare? Oh lovely sol

Always letting people bask in the warmth

How will we move forth?

The world will say not to stare at the sun

But the ones with it always has the most fun

in summer, she shines brighter than ever

To be like that, one can only endeavor

The world may never be the same without

but the sun wouldn’t want us to live in doubt

Full of love and full of life

we will be at strife

the only thing is we never said goodbye

We will ask why

we will cry

But the love will never subside

The sun is now where she was meant for

In the sky, bringing warmth to the earth floor
