You can mess up my thought and the train it rides,
you can bury every emotion that ever tries to hide,
you know exactly what I'm going to do.
You can picture a love so strong and full,
but you can't deny this incredible pull,
it tugs on your hearts strings, too.

I'm not going to let you go,
if you'll ever be mine, please say so.
I'm falling too fast to let things slip,
I can take you on a fantastic trip ...

You are the sunshine, I am the moonlight,
half a planet away.

You are so gorgeous inside and out,
when there's a storm you clear the clouds,
you can balance anything unsure.
Taking you for granted is like breaking the law,
and he's a criminal out on parole,
he doesn't realize what you need is pure.

I can give you anything,
from a simple word to a diamond ring.
You're nothing like you think you condemn,
you're only imperfection is that you're with him ...

You are the sunshine, I am the moonlight,
half a planet away.

Interstates, highways, avenues and dirt roads,
when I'm with you that's where I seem to go,
it's usually curvey, and never the same.
I can't understand why God does this to me,
everytime I find someone there's no simplicity,
I do believe he's trying to drive me insane.

Mid-afternoon I feel you near,
but when the night comes it's me you fear.
Can't you release that pain that nags?
Take a trip to me and bring your bags ... (forget him, drop him)

You are the sunshine, I am the moonlight,
half a planet away.

Only you ... I never eat, I don't sleep.
Only you ... it happens all day, it's your vision I play.
Only you ... don't ask me why, I have no answer to apply.
Only you ... dreaming of you, do you feel the same way too?
Please tell me ... please tell me ... (remember me, lift me)

You are the sunshine, I am the moonlight,
half a planet away.
