rises the moon

Days seem sometimes as if they'll never end
 Sun digs its heels to taunt you
 But after sunlit days, one thing stays the same
 Rises the moon
 Days fade into a watercolour blur
 Memories swim and haunt you
 But look into the lake, shimmering like smoke
 Rises the moon
 Oh-oh, close your weary eyes
 I promise you that soon the autumn comes
 To darken 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
 Rises 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
 Rises 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
