The Setting Sun

Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)



The Rising Moon, The Setting Sun

The Day is over and the Nights begun

The Sun was Shinning Oh so Bright but,

now the Moon is out to Light the Night.



The Rising Moon, The Setting Sun

The Stars are Twinkling each and every One

The Sky has Darken it has turned to Night but,

The Moon in the horizon will give it Light.



The Rising Moon, The Setting Sun

A Brand New Day, A Day has Begun

The Moon has faded, The Sun has Risen

A Picture Perfect Day, A Brand New Vision.
