lyrics

Mr Mr the suns in the west,
I don't know why, Father knows best.
The world keeps on turning regardless of me.
North, South, West it confuses me.

The only word with meaning is why,
Why we're on earth and they're in the sky.
The man gives a smile and takes the boys hand, says
'Explore the mysteries held in this land.'

Mr Mr the moons in the east,
I thought it had stopped, I thought it had ceased.
They both look up the moon beams down,
With its beauty and light the boy pulls a frown.

'Why does he glow when he is alone?
Why does he shine when he hasn't a home?'
The man gives a smile 'It's ok my lad
The sun is the mum the moon is the dad'

Seasons change and time rolls past,
His mind is a storm clinging onto a mast.
Looks into space, stars glimmer like chrome.
Trying to get a bearing to find his way home.

Chorus:
Ohhhhhhhh,
The sky is so vast.
But in the endless air,
He wants the memories to last.

Mr Mr the boy starts to cry,
with the sun and the moon both in the sky
He's in awe, never seen this before
the Man smiles at him he knows there is more.

As the moon joins the sun, he is filled with delight
there is darkness but a beaming circle of light.
He finally sees that neither are alone,
Mum and Dad together the sky as their home.

He gazes into space, the two unite,
a home is made by a miraculous sight.
Clouds gather round and beauty begin,
creates a warm blanket and tucks him in.

Chorus:
Ohhhhhhhh,
they're miles apart.
But in the endless air,
he knows they hold his heart.
