Can barely keep my eyes open
But sleep won’t come tonight
No matter how I try, no luck
I can’t shut out the light

I’ve traveled a long road
To reach my favorite place
I stopped to rest a moment
Found myself on Moon’s face

He didn’t seem quite happy
After all, I dimmed his light
I promised him, “Don’t worry!”
“I’ll soon be tucked in, tight!”

But first I have to cross the bridge
And make sure I don’t fall through
Taking baby steps, and carefully
Is what I’ll need to do

I can see my teddy bear
Waiting patiently for me
Atop my pillow, on my bed
Tis where I want to be

So we can snuggle closely
Perhaps, to dream of Mars
Where imagination can run free
Fast asleep, beneath the stars

She covers her face, weeps into her hand

Leaning against barren stretches of sand

And the trees behind her, though silent and still

Offer no shelter from the penetrating chill

She is forlorn and helpless, no hope to be found

Marked by the cross, that lies in the ground

A lover departed, she longs for his touch

And he reaches for her, with the wind’s gentle rush
