Elton in his creative exhuberance exclaimed against the sun's demise

Cold is the night when a sky full of stars are at play, as the stars of the show take the stage

looking as we must, as the sun disappears behind its celestial partner

it's only a paper moon shadowing it all

patterns and sequences, eclipsical occurences, all you touch, see, taste, feel, love and hate

Springsteen calls you to the dancefloor for lunar dance and romance

Ella reminds us it's just a paper moon and soon the sun will reappear
