Oh be a manas fast as you can
Growing up wildout in the fields
In awe of the starsand the power they wield
Oh you loved them anyway
Don t think they noticed you
See how the stars changefrom summer to fall
The sole indicationthat we re moving at all
Carry the worldwith the hands of a child
You can t be a boyshe wants you to be wild
She was the sunsunsun
And you were the moon
And the light of the sun
Fills up the room
Oh you loved her anyway
And she tried to love you
When she was asleepyou d watch her face
Taken in sleep to a more peaceful place
You d stand by the doorcause you were her guard
And you d love her in silenceand it wasn t that hard.
Cause she was the sunsunsun
And you were the moon
And the light of the sun
Eclipses the moon
Oh you loved her anyway
And she tried to love you
She never asked youwhat you re dreaming of
She told you bout Texasand liquor and love
She was hard-edged and brokenshe blamed a man
But she told you to be oneas fast as you can
