The Sun King and the Winter Moon
The Night Birds and the Birds Of MorningSang together for a spellTill the Night Birds song became a warningA warning they knew all too wellMorning would be coming soonThey flew off toward the Winter MoonAnd they followed her down as down she fellThey followed her down as down she fellHow far down I'll never tellFollowed her down as down she fellAs down she fell she called out to him"Aren't you cold without me dear?"Her silver tongue sent shivers through himHe pretended not to hearBut she knew him like no others didShe knew where all his hurt was hidHe followed her down but he never got nearHe followed her down but he never got nearHe had no hope and he had no fearHe followed her down but he never got nearWhen the Sun King rose that afternoonHe looked like he had been through hellAll night he'd chased that Winter MoonAsk him why, he could not tellLetras de cancionesBut when she finally turned to himWe all saw his light grow dimAnd he followed her down as down she fellHe followed her down as down she fellHow far down I'll never tellHe followed her down as down she fellSo fly away home you Birds Of MorningFly away all you Night Birds tooOr all your songs will die a'borningAll except this mournful tuneAbout the Sun King and the Winter MoonThe Sun King and the Winter Moon
