It happened just a minute ago and maybe a light year away
Then again I’m a lil drunk so it might’ve been yesterday

I could’ve sworn or so I thought that I saw your shadow there
I’m not going to say it startled me, just caught me unaware

So I threw a rope around the sun and tied it to the mountains
It’s light fell upon the jagged cliffs and splashed amidst the fountains

Your shadow sat and stayed with me while the world got lost again
We talked of our ideas on things and what could be come when

The stars demanded I free the sun and set her on her way
This means your shadow will have to go so they can have their day

I bid your shadow a fond farewell and turn back towards the moon
I take the rope from around the sun and tell it to come back soon
