Song Description

In praise of the sun

Lyrics

93 million miles away
there is a star that turns our night into day
it doesn't burn us up
'cause it's so far away
and it's the star (spoken) ladies and gentlemen the star
of the Milky Way

And in the day there's only one star we see
and it's our sun
in the sky that is shining brightly
so that I can see you and so you can see me
and it's our star, ladies and gentlemen...our star
of the galaxy

(Bridge)
The sun is the one that warms things up
that lights and delights and adorns things up
The sun is only one we know about
that the rooster will wake up and crow about

CHORUS
And oh
Where would we be without the sun
The sun brings joy to everyone
Where would we be without the sun
And oh
What would we be without the sun
The sun brings warmth to everyone
What would we be without the sun
93 million miles from here
There is a friend we have in the space frontier
if it weren't for him we would all disappear
so come on
to the sun premier

He's been the subject of prose and verse
He is what he is He doesn't need to rehearse
he performs each day we don't need to coerce him
He's the star...ladies and gentlemen...the star
of our universe

(repeat Bridge)
CHORUS
