High in the sky

While sat outside staring in the sky
At the shining stars and bashful moon

Maybe fun for some but not for me

The night was cold so got back inside

To warm myself by the open fire

With cup of cocoa Mum made for me

She told me of stars and planets names

Saturn, Venus, Mars and Mercury

I drank the cocoa it warmed me up

And crawled up in my mothers lap

She told me of Mars the god of war

And Venus was the goddess of love

That Mercury was the messenger

As I grew sleepy I asked my Mum

"What about the Moon then, what is that?"

"That's Earths naughty little baby"

"He's a lot like you and wants to play

Sometimes sleeps at night and sometimes day

And just like you he's my shining light

"cos I love to see him day and night"

By now I was dreamy, happy warm

I felt safe just where I loved to be

Cuddled close in Mummy's loving arms

I dreamt we both flew high in the sky
