The sun so bright She rises up From underground To greet the morn Her color bright She shows her love But the night Slowly runs into hiding And when the sun realizes That the moon has fled She goes back down Into her bed And slowly the moon Rises back up Bringing along the stars For the night does not love the sun Yet around the Earth, the sun chases the moon The sun keeps chasing the moon Until the Earth is at rest Until the moon loves her back She runs in circles Oh, the poor moon Can't bear to break her heart So instead he runs and hides Running to and from each other Each on opposite sides
