You always were a bit precocious Riding on my handlebars As I was pedaling for both of us You told me you were going far Oh, I was always gonna be behind you Cause I love to see you find your way And I hope I never will remind you to stay The moon is gonna keep on shining Bright enough for everyone But still you're gonna keep on flying Into the sun You always called me "Johnny Cautious" Told me that I walk too slow You said instead of asking for directions Just tell me where you wanna go Well, I don't know if I know how to leave here And I hate to watch you fly away But I wouldn't want to keep you either anyway The moon is gonna keep on shining Bright enough for everyone But still you're gonna keep on flying into the sun I don't know why I keep on trying To drag you back down to earth You're always gonna keep on flying into the sun Into the jealous sun Melting your wings Watching you plunge It's burning you up That jealous sun Is gonna be sad It doesn't have you Reflecting upon that sad old Moon is gonna keep on shining Bright enough for everyone But still, you're gonna keep on flying into the sun I don't know why I keep on trying To drag you back down to earth You're always gonna keep on flying into the sun Into the jealous sun (You're always gonna keep on flying) Into the jealous sun
