Sun is red, moon is cracked
daddy's never coming back
nothing's ever yours to keep
close your eyes, go to sleep
if I die before you wake
don't you cry, don't you weep

Nothing's ever as it seems
climb the ladder to your dreams
if I die before you wake
don't you cry, don't you weep
nothing's ever yours to keep
close your eyes, go to sleep

Remark: When I heard the song the first time, I
was totally thrilled and I wanted to take it
into my live-program. Only accompanied by the
guitar, I was missing the sentimental, bearing
feeling of the strings. So I rearranged the song
for piano-accompaniment only, which keeps major
elements of the original guitar and strings.
