How do you rate the morning sunAfter a long and sleepless night?How many stars would you give to the moon?Do you see those stars from where you are?Shine on the lost and loneliestThe ones who can't get over itYou always wanted more than lifeBut now you don't have the appetiteIn a message to the troubadourThe world don't love you anymoreTell me how do you rate the morning sun?Stuck inside the rainbow yearsYou could happen to meCause I've been close to where you areI've drove to places you have seenIt all seems so familiarLike they've been sent to kill yaIt doesn't take an astronautTo float in a space is just a thoughtThe morning brings a mysteryThe evening makes it historyTell me how do you rate the morning sun?And the village drunkSadly passed away,It was a shame I never knew his nameI wonder if he sat there every morningWatched the sunriseHow do you rate the morning sunIt's just too heavy for meAnd all I wanted was the worldIf you were the star let in the sunDon't go wasting your timeCause there is no finish lineAnd you don't see anything,Not even love not anything,The night can take the man from youA sense of wonder overdueThe morning brings a mysteryThe evening makes it historyWho am I to rate the morning sun?
