It's been a long hard day in this small town
It's had its ups and downs
As the sun sets in the sky
I feel alright
I'm tired enough to rest my eyes
But can't drift off quite yet
Because tonight, the moon is so damn bright
Somehow, I fall fast asleep
Because the moon it comforts me
And in the dark it brings me peace
I awake from a dream
I was sailing across the sea
As I looked up I feel the moon smile down on me
Such a great big world
And such a job to do
You gotta let it all up at Mr. Moon tonight
I know, we're connected
It's such a wonder to think
We're all underneath
The same great big night sky
But we're in your care tonight
So treat us well
Somehow, I fall fast asleep
Because the moon it comforts me
And in the dark it brings me peace
And I awake from a dream
I was sailing across the sea
As I look up I see the moon smile down on me
