By the light of the moon I gazed at your face
 It was the middle of June or maybe in may
 I looked at you and you looked away
 Like in a flower in bloom on a cold summer day
 By the light of the moon I looked in your eyes
 Not a moment too soon did I realize
 The world is in tune it tells you no lies
 Like a flower in bloom reaching up to the skies
 Getting close to the sun
 Close to the sun
 Say goodbye this is your time to fly
 Can’t find the reason why you should not go
 This is your time to fly go spread your wings on high
 But make sure you don’t fly too close to the sun
 Close to the sun
 On a cold summer day you said your goodbyes
 And you walked through that door for the very last time
 You turned as you left and you whispered to me
 Always will we love and always will we be
 Close to the sun
 Close to the sun
 Say goodbye this is your time to fly
 Can’t find the reason why you should not go
 This is your time to fly go spread your wings on high
 But make sure you don’t fly too close to the sun
 Say goodbye this is your time to fly
 Can’t find the reason why you should not go
 This is your time to fly go spread your wings on high
 But make sure you don’t fly too close to the sun
 Close to the sun
 Close to the sun
 Close to the sun
 Close to the sun
