Today I chipped a piece off of the sun Brought it to you shining So you'd see the wondrous thing that I had done You said "Don't bring me sun, bring me moon" I said alright I'll be back soon. Tonight I went as high as I could fly Reached the moon and touched it And removed the piece I thought would catch your eye You said "I changed my mind I want a star" And I said alright but I'll be gone awhile 'cause it's quite far. And I was gone awhile 'cause it's quite far But also because I realized where you are. Tomorrow I'll return with empty hands Listen to the weeping of a girl who doesn't get what she demands And you'll say don't come back without star And I'll say bye bye. Love's the greatest gift I have to give And if it's not returned it just can't live So la-la-la
