When the world was thirteen million years old All alone she cried till oceans were full Her mother the sun said hush little one You won't be alone anymore She gathered up all of the dust out in space And smushed it all together in one small place A glowing white hue and a crater covered face Meet your new brother the moon Brother moon, brother moon You light up the night and hide all the gloom So when the dark becomes too much to bear I'll feel better knowing you're there Earth and moon made up a game they called tag That's been goin' four point five billion years long All night they play till each brand new day Then Earth says sleep tight brother moon I'll see you again real soon I'll see you again real soon
