After a long and sleepless night,
How many stars would you give to the moon?
Do you see those stars from where you are?
Shine on the lost and loneliest,
The ones who can't get over it.
And you always wanted more than life,
And now you don't have the appetite
Send a message to the troubadour,
The world don't love you anymore,
Tell me how do you rate the morning sun?
Stuck inside the rainbow years,
And you could happen to me,
'cause I've been close to where you are.
I drove to places you have seen,
It all seems so familiar,
Like they've been sent to kill ya.
It doesn't take an astronaut
To float into space is just a thought
The morning brings the mystery,
The evening makes it history,
Tell me how do you rate the morning sun?
And the village drunk,
Sadly passed away,
It was a shame,
I never knew his name.
I wonder if he sat there every morning
And watched the sun rise.
How do you rate the morning sun?
It was just too heavy for me
And all I wanted was the world.
And you are the starlet in the sun,
Don't go wasting your time,
'cause there is no finish line.
And you don't see anything,
Not even love, not anything.
The night could take the man from you,
A sense of wonder overdue.
The morning brings the mystery,
The evening makes it history,
Who am I to rate the morning sun?
