If I could ride into the sky to hide
If I could write to the moon tonight
I’d whisper true in delicious blue:
“My sweet friend, these words to you I send
Hoping that you dream a magic kind of dream
As you glide into sight on this beautiful night.”
The cold that you reap while the world is asleep
Is the balancing charm to the day’s sunny warm
The sun is just green, though his envy is unseen
Let no teardrop pool over the sun, that fool
His sour jealousy makes no difference to me
He’s no big star and nothing like you are
aw, love it.
