here’s to the sun
that dawns on the hearts of all men
shines on the path of all the travelers
leaving nobody in the shadows
here’s to a good day
lifting the veil on our love
lord i’ve been waiting such a long time
for the better days to come
for the warmth of another
turn and i will face my morning star
and her starlight lighting the way
higher and higher above the sun
and the fever burning the ray
now it’s warm for the time of year
and i’m as right as rain
you run the risk of starting a fire
set my heart aflame
summer nights fade in and out
paper moon please leave the light on
at night darkness falls
i don’t need it anymore
we can face it on our own
turn and i will face my morning star
and her starlight lighting the way
higher and higher above the sun
and the fever burning the ray
now it’s warm for the time of year
and i’m as right as rain
you run the risk of starting a fire
set my heart aflame
and the finest thing that i’ve ever done
was say “i do”
and have it whispered in return
i will face my morning star
i will face my morning star
the morning star
