The sun rises for her smile
To see who could shine brighter.
Loses every time,
But comes back despite her.

Yes, even the sun,
If it weren’t for the moon,
Would stare for eternity,
And would still leave too soon.

Over the horizon
The moon comes at night.
Takes a peak at her face,
But then hides in great fright.

His nerves get the best of him.
He can’t let her know.
He has so many feelings,
But he can’t let them show.

You see he’s not so pretty,
Not like the sun.
He takes the joy that it brings,
And makes it undone.

He’s so dark and sinister,
Malformed and gray.
What makes him bearable is
The light from the day.

Yes, the sun is a god
He lets the moon hide his face,
Because when the night comes
He knows the moon takes his place.

But everyone’s happy
When that star comes out.
They all get up
And they all get about,

But not this one girl.
She’s different for sure,
Because when the suns out,
Another day to endure

Without what she wants,
What she’d like to see.
The only person on earth
Who has this one plea.

She wants something else,
But it’s never around.
She just wants the moon,
But he was confound.

If only he knew
What she said when he ran,
“The moon is so perfect!”
She had a plan.

“When the darkness rolls in
I’ll lay down in bed.
I won’t go to sleep,
Ill fake it instead.

When he comes around,
And sits in the sky,
I’ll get up right then,
And open my eyes!”

She waited it out
Until the sun set
Out crept the moon
It was time that they met

And when it happened
They didn’t believe what they saw.
They were staring right at each other.
Both were in awe.

The moon was so happy
He shined like a star.
And she smiled so big.
It was something bazaar.

It was something so perfect
Something you needed to catch.
At that very moment
They both found their match.
