There's one thing
That I know
Keeps everyone connected
No matter where you are
You know that someone is sharing it with you
We only have one
But we can all look at it
Together
Look up
and what do you see
A large, round sphere in the sky
It's the moon
You know that the people you truly care for
Are looking at it with you
It's something we can all share
No one can take it away
And it will never leave you
