about

This is the song that started my current musical journey. I have always enjoyed Emmy The Great and when I heard that Emma was running song writing groups, I had to take part. I'm so glad I did.

This song was the outcome of the first or second session. The co-writers are the others in the group. We all did our own versions, this is mine. Thanks to Emma for letting me release this duet version more widely.

lyrics

The moon without ozone looks different
But it’s always the same moon
Sometimes you see it in the morning
Sometimes in the afternoon
I’m staring at it, it’s staring at you
It’s staring at you

The moon is a mirror
The reflection of you
A pool in the starlight
A glimmer of proof
I’m sending a postcard, addressed in your name
It’s message will tell you what I can’t explain

The moon disappeared, my day has begun
I don’t need that moon anymore, I have the sun
Its warm light brings promise
I just live for today
In the warmth of the sunlight, icy tears melt away

The moon is a mirror,
(The moon is a mirror)
A reflection of you
(A reflection of you)
But I’m guided by sunlight
(I’m guided by starlight)
It shines with the truth
(They shine with the truth)
I’ll think of the moon
(I’ll think of the moon)
when the night comes again
(when the night comes again)
But I’ll see it as sunlight
(I see it as starlight)
I’ll see it as sunlight
(But I see it as starlight)
I’ll see it as sunlight
(I see it as starlight)
I’ll see it as sunlight
(I see it as starlight)
I’ll see it as sunlight
(I see it as starlight)
I’ll see it as sunlight
(I see it as starlight)

Sunlight
(Starlight)
