Description
Sunset to sunrise I hung above you
My light, feeble but all I could give
Everything I gave you, I took from another
The shadows, the dead hours were my time to live

The names you gave me were his names
What happened to ‘moonrise’ and ‘moonfall’
You worked and played beneath his light
I had nothing, he had it all

Your artists and poets, your songs of my beauty
Were written by the light of his golden face
The times in the night that you found me wanting
How much could you give in my place?

I wish I could give you a light in the dark
I wanted to help you, to guide your way
I could never stop you from closing your eyes
Sleeping ‘til I fell at day

I’m tired of hanging here, giving my all
I’m tired of waiting for someone to see
I’m tired of stealing, tired of the cold
I’m tired of hoping he’ll come back to me

So wait for the sunrise, wait for Moonfall
The end of my last silver spell
I’m tired of giving and never receiving
So goodbye; I wish you well.
