Adelaide
Arctic Moon Lyrics

Badu Erykah
Mama's Gun
Orange Moon
I'm an Orange Moon
I'm an Orange Moon
Reflecting the light of the sun

Many nights he was alone
Many, many, many nights
His light was so bright that they turned away
And he stood alone
Every night and every day
Then he turned to me
He saw his reflection in me
And he smiled at me when he turned to me
Then he said to me

How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is

I'm an Orange Moon
I'm brighter than before
Brighter than ever before
I'm an Orange Moon and I shine so bright
Cause I reflect the light of my sun
I praise the day, he turned my way
And smiled at me
He gets to smile and I get to be orange, that I love to be

How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is

(Oh...)
Shine so bright
(Oh...)
He ruled the day, I ruled the night
(Oh...)
Shine, shine, shine
(Oh...)

How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good he is, how god is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how god is
How good it is, how good it is

I'm an orange moon
I'm brighter than before, brighter




Reflecting the light of the sun
Smile at me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Arctic Moon's song "Adelaide" tell the story of an Orange Moon reflecting the light of the sun. The Moon had been alone for many nights because his light was so brightly shining that everyone turned away from him. However, one day he turned to the singer - an Orange Moon - and saw his reflection in her. As a result, he smiled at her and said to her how good it is.


The Orange Moon is brighter than before and shines so bright because she reflects the light of her sun. She praises the day that the Moon turned her way and smiled at her. The Moon ruled the day, while she ruled the night, and they shine together. The lyrics are a metaphor for a relationship in which one partner empowers and reflects the light of the other, making them both shine brighter.
