lyrics

She was my best friend
The thrills would never end
We'd go splashing through the puddles
Share memories in made up languages

But that was long ago
Now look at how she's grown
She's as radiant as a firefly
As realized as all the dreams we'd sew

And now the time has come, for you to go and save her
There's nothing I can do to help her now
For in this world, she'll have to navigate through danger
And only by your guiding hand will she discover how

Just take her to the moon for me
Relieve her: put tears in her eyes
The tears of joy and misery
For dreamers need both to survive

Though we've had such fun
It seems my time is done
Am I selfish in my sadness
To see her go as her journey's just begun?

There's no need to pretend
I knew how this would end
I've waited far too long now
To think that I could be her joy again

And now the time has come, for you to go and save her
There's nothing I can do to help her now
For in this world, she'll have to navigate through danger
And only by your guiding hand will she discover how

Just take her to the moon for me
Relieve her: put tears in her eyes
The tears of joy and misery
For dreamers need both to survive
