Just Like The Moon Lyrics

I sat outside one afternoon 

In an old lawn chair 

And I watched the sun set off 

For business west somewhere 

While the sky turned watercolor fine 

And gold and blue 

And the stars all showed up one by one 

And we waited for the moon 

And I thought ‘bout you and I wondered why 

It took so long to say goodbye 

You shined so bright you blinded me 

And left me so I couldn’t see 

(CHORUS) 

I was the moon chasing the sun 

There was never a prayer of ever catching up 

No matter how fast I would run 

Like the moon chasing the sun 

Just like the moon chasing the sun 

The crickets called 

And the moon peeked out to the eastern sky 

They both start up about this time each night 

And an evening breeze stopped by 

And brought some sweet relief 

In the silver light I finally let go of the heat 

And I thought ‘bout you and I wondered why 

It took so long to say goodbye 

You shined so bright you blinded me 

And left me so I couldn’t see 

(CHORUS)
