Sun & Moon
Above.Beyond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A black sky is falling
It's cold tonight
You gave me your answer
Goodbye
Now I'm all on my own tonight
You can never know the odds
If you don't play you'll never win
We were in heaven you and I
When I lay with you and close my eyes
Our fingers touch the sky
I'm sorry baby
You were the sun and moon to me
I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me
I'm sorry baby
You were the sun and moon to me
I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
You held back and lost out
You gave in to reach down
And walk away
A final embrace
You won't turn, I won't change
Nothing more to say
But when the big wheel starts to spin
You can never know the odds
If you don't play you'll never win
We were in heaven you and I
When I lay with you and close my eyes
Our fingers touch the sky
I'm sorry baby
You were the sun and moon to me
I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me
I'm sorry baby
You were the sun and moon to me
I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
The lyrics of "Sun & Moon" by Above & Beyond describe a relationship that has come to an end, leaving one partner feeling alone and devastated. The opening lines "It's raining, it's pouring, a black sky is falling, it's cold tonight" set the somber tone of the song. The singer feels lost and abandoned after their partner has left them: "You gave me your answer, goodbye, now I'm all on my own tonight." Despite the pain, the lyrics hold out hope that things will get better: "When the big wheel starts to spin, you can never know the odds. If you don't play, you'll never win."
The chorus has a sense of finality, expressing regret for what has been lost: "I'm sorry, baby, you were the sun and moon to me. I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me." The metaphor of the sun and moon represents how important the other person was to the singer, and how essential they were to their world. The final lines of the song leave the listener with the sense that the relationship is truly over, and that the two people will never come back together.

It's raining, it's pouring
The weather is dark and gloomy
A black sky is falling
The sky is dark and ominous
It's cold tonight
The temperature is low and uncomfortable
You gave me your answer
You made a decision and communicated it to me
Goodbye
You are leaving and saying farewell
Now I'm all on my own tonight
I am alone and without your company
But when the big wheel starts to spin
Opportunities arise and you never know what might happen
You can never know the odds
There is no way to predict the outcome
If you don't play you'll never win
If you don't take a chance, you'll never succeed
We were in heaven you and I
Our relationship was amazing and perfect
When I lay with you and close my eyes
I feel happy and content when I am with you
Our fingers touch the sky
Our love is grand and limitless
I'm sorry baby
I express regret and apology
You were the sun and moon to me
You were the center of my world and my everything
I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me
Our love was so strong that it will always affect us
You held back and lost out
You restrained yourself and missed an opportunity
You gave in to reach down
You settled for less than you deserved
And walk away
You left and moved on
A final embrace
A last hug or moment together
You won't turn, I won't change
Neither of us will alter our decision or behavior
Nothing more to say
There is nothing left to discuss or explain
Oh, oh, oh
A repeated vocalization, possibly expressing sadness or longing

It's cold tonight
You gave me your answer
Goodbye
Now I'm all on my own tonight
And when the big wheel starts to spin
You can never know the odds
If you don't play you'll never win
We were in heaven you and I
When I lay with you and close my eyes
Our fingers touch the sky
I'm sorry baby
You were the sun and moon to me
I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me
And when the big wheel starts to spin
You can never know the odds
If you don't play you'll never win
We were in heaven you and I
When I lay with you and close my eyes
Our fingers touch the sky
