lyrics

The day the moon became the sun
She grew a long red beard
Put on her hat, and smoked her pipe
Soon after, disappeared.
And we all forgot. And we all forgot.

All the while the moon was singing:
I am more than what you see, I am more than what you see
When I am red, I’m still gray
When I am gone, I’m still there
When I am waning, I am full
I am everything at once.

And we sang back, to the moon:
Let us remember, let us remember
That we are already whole
Let us remember, let us remember
That we are already whole.

The day the sun became the moon
He slivered into curves
And wore a silky hazel dress
That floated in the wind.

His hair out long, the curls swung down
Like rope, we thought we could climb up to him.
For we all forgot, for we all forgot.

All the while the sun kept singing:
You cannot come close to me
You cannot look into me
But I am everywhere at once
My light is what you see.

I grow the gardens
I lift the seeds
I dry the river
And I burn the trees.

But will you ever truly see me?

And we sang back to the sun:
Let us remember, let us remember
That we may never be known
Let us remember, let us remember
That we may never be known.
