You are the sun I am the moon 
Shine for me, I’ll shine for you 
People know only one of my sides 
A reflection of you, the rest I hide
                        
You are bright and I am blue
The best part of me is you
You shine on me and I pretend 
To be seen but all nights end


You are needed, I’m unknown
I am seated far from your throne
But some come to me for midnight’s silence 
Tired of light and of days violence
                        
You are warm; I am cold
You stay young but I grow old 
We never stop spinning, spinning 
I am lost but you say I’m winning 
You say I’m winning
                        
I feel you from somewhere far away 
Though we’re different as night and day
As things come to pass and come to light 
Somewhere this night is day, this day is night
                        
You are the sun, I am the moon 
Shine for me, I’ll shine for you 
Because all darkness needs some light 
And all days need some night
