Lune

I see you looking at me every night Sometime I see your face in the light of day In your eclipse a right balance is struck My Lune you set my mood I’m drawn to you No lunacy in the realm of our reality

Lune so full of life, not dry and dead You’re crest in your north, south, east and west Lune of harvest for life Lune a place to rest

You circle my world Not once but twice You came to me in the night Lune you sat at my window and shone bright You let me sleep in your light

Lune you lit up my path You showed me the way to walk in the darkest of nights I found my way through the forest There in your light all was right

Lune of the night fairies, wave up at you They jump from star to star to greet you I see you looking at me every night My Lune, my lunacy is meant to be

My Lune, in the light of your shadow This too can be, what better contrast than lunacy To see the light of the one and only Lune in the sky My Lune, your full and bright What else is there to see
