Lyrics

How did you get here so soon?
I was just looking at the moon
Then, up came the sun
Didn't know that I'd been
Sitting here now for so long

Seems like you know me so well
Life's put love in your eyes
Though, my mind is dark
To know I'm in your heart
Keeps me me sane now for so long

How did you get here so soon?
I was just looking at the moon
Then, up came the sun
Didn't know that I'd been
Sitting here now for so long[3]
