To Be The Moon - Aaron Watson

Everybody wants to be a star

But shooting stars always burn out way too soon

And the sun is way too hot to hold

And always leaves after every afternoon

So it’s not so bad to be the moon

No, it’s not so bad to be the moon

So don’t you dare duck behind the clouds and hide

You help children dream and you make lovers swoon

Don’t you know you’re strong enough to change the tide

So it’s not so bad to be the moon

No, it’s not so bad to be the moon

Even poets say there’s magic in your shine

Every night, the whole wide world looks up to you

And to stare at the sun would leave them blind

So it’s not so bad to be the moon

No, it’s not so bad to be the moon

It’s not so bad to be the moon

So don’t you dare duck behind the clouds and hide

You help children dream and you make lovers swoon

Don’t you know you’re strong enough to change the tide

So it’s not so bad to be the moon

No, it’s not so bad to be the moon

No, it’s not so bad to be the moon

No, it’s not so bad to be the moon

It’s not so bad

Everybody wants to be a star

But shooting stars always burn out way too soon
