I'm not like the sunlight, I'm not warm and bright My rays don't sparkle nor glisten with light People aren't drawn to me in the summer haze They don't spend their afternoons adoring my gaze
I'm more like the moonlight within the darkest nights Not bright nor beautiful but still providing some light My rays are soft and gentle, peaceful as such I won't burn nor blister the people with my touch
And though I arent as loved, nor am I as romanticized by poets I'll hide in the shadows of silver clouds, You'd hardly even notice But I'll give you what I can, I'll listen to your woes So even on the darkest nights, you won't feel so alone
So come sit upon the rooftops, every once in a while Rugged up in a blanket, show me that perfectly imperfect smile Cause even though I can't provide the same love, as the sun gives days I promise I'll stay by your side, giving you little glisten of moonlight Forever and Aways

Different types of lights with different types of lives Though moonlight can be just as nice as the sun
