Lyrics:

It's just the sun


It's just the sun that's shining in your eyes
It's just the moon that is the sun's disguise
Just the sky with clouds that blowin' by (?)
The sun and the moon and the sky and you and I

It's just the rain that's rolling down my cheak
It's just the wind that makes me hear you speak
It's just the song that anyone can sing
The rain and the wind and the song and the love you bring

It's just the world that's gonna break your heart
It's just the past that's tearing us apart
It's just the time we have so little of
The world and the past and the time that we fell in love

It's just the sun that's shining in your eyes
It's just the moon that is the sun's disguise
It's just the sky with clouds that blowin' by
The sun and the moon and the sky and you and I
