By the light of the moon I gazed at your face It was the middle of June or maybe in may I looked at you and you looked away Like in a flower in bloom on a cold summer day By the light of the moon I looked in your eyes Not a moment too soon did I realize The world is in tune it tells you no lies Like a flower in bloom reaching up to the skies Getting close to the sun Close to the sun Say goodbye this is your time to fly Can't find the reason why you should not go This is your time to fly go spread your wings on high But make sure you don't fly too close to the sun Close to the sun On a cold summer day you said your goodbyes And you walked through that door for the very last time You turned as you left and you whispered to me Always will we love and always will we be Close to the sun Close to the sun Say goodbye this is your time to fly Can't find the reason why you should not go This is your time to fly go spread your wings on high But make sure you don't fly too close to the sun Say goodbye this is your time to fly Can't find the reason why you should not go This is your time to fly go spread your wings on high But make sure you don't fly too close to the sun Close to the sun Close to the sun Close to the sun Close to the sun
