The crickets called and the moon peeked out of the eastern sky

They both start up about this time each night

And the evening breeze dropped by and brought some sweet relief

And in the silver light I finally let go of the heat

And I thought about you and I wondered why

I took so long to say goodbye

Oh you shined so bright you blinded me

And left me so I couldn't see

That I was the moon chasing the sun

There was never a prayer of ever catching up

No matter how fast I would run

Like the moon chasing the sun

Just like the moon chasing the sun
