Days seem sometimes as if they'll never end Sun takes its heels to taunt you But after sunlit days, one thing stays the same Rise is the moon Days fade into a watercolor blur Memories swim and haunt you But look into the lake, shimmering like smoke Rise is the moon Oh, close your weary eyes I promise you that soon the autumn comes To darkened, fading summer skies Breathe, breathe, breathe Days pull you down just like a sinking ship Floating is getting harder But tread the water, child, and know that meanwhile Rise is the moon Days pull you up just like a daffodil Uprooted from its garden They'll tell you what you owe, but know even so Rise is the moon You'll be visited by sleep I promise you that soon the autumn comes To steal away each dream you keep Breathe, breathe, breathe Thanks for watching!
