Good morning freedom and good morning sky
Good morning new ideas, good morning life
This morning I can see things in a brand new light
So thank you, to the gentleman who changed my mind

Yesterday I visited the man in the moon
He said "hey, why don't you stay awhile and come back real soon?"
"No" I say, "I've got bills to pay and things to do
but even when the sun shines I'll be thinking of you"

I've been lonely oh and I've been lost
I've gotten what I want and paid the cost
While I was in the darkness too tired to sleep
It was there I saw his face staring down at me

Yesterday I visited the man in the moon
He said "hey, why don't you stay awhile and come back real soon?"
"No" I say, "I've got bills to pay and things to do
but even when the sun shines I'll be thinking of you"

I hope that some days you will think of me
Stop to wonder how I might be
Though sometimes it can feel like several galaxies
You're only a sunset away from me

I think that I'm in love with the man in the moon
He leaves his fears in the atmosphere and keeps his cool
If you ever leave me I don't know what I'll do
Cause every time the sun sets I'll be waiting on you
Every time the sun sets I'll be waiting on you
Every time the sun sets I'll be waiting on you

Every time the sun sets I'm with the man in the moon
