Just Like The Moon Lyrics - Kim Richey - Kim Richey

Sat outside one afternoon in an old lawn chair 

And I watched the sun set off for business west somewhere 

And the sky turned water color pink and gold and blue 

And the stars all showed up one by one and we waited for the moon 

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 

The crickets called and the moon peaked 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
