Rest your head now – start to dream
The moon is watching us – so it seems
Think about the day we have left behind
And dream about the days we have yet to find.
The festival today’s got us thinking of the moon
I hope we can eat some more moon cakes soon
Is that lady on the moon looking down at us now?
Is she happy – I would ask her if I only knew how.
Chorus:
Rest your head now – it’s time for bed
Belly full of moon cakes
And moon thoughts fill your head
Rest your mind now – it’s all just fine
This world is full of surprise
We’ll see it – your hand in mine.
That lady on the moon used to be the emperor’s wife
She ate a pill that would give her everlasting life
Then she ate the other one that was for her husband too
And she floated all the way up to the moon!
Way up on the moon looking down on us all
Blue & green like a marble we must seem so small
From up there we all come from the very same place
Doesn’t matter what you pray or the color of your face.
Chorus:
Rest your head now – it’s time for bed
Belly full of moon cakes
And moon thoughts fill your head
Rest your mind now – it’s all just fine
This world is full of surprise
We’ll see it – your hand in mine.
