Earth is spinning helplessly, among the Milky Way
Stars are shining, asteroids tumbling
Comets flying, black holes gaping, wild

And where is all the laughter, the laughter of the children
Chasing after moonbeams in the sun?
Superman is crying, crying in the rainclouds
Chasing after moonbeams in the sun

[Chorus]
Running through the trees, catching falling leaves
Chasing with the hare and with the hound
Running with the devil, chasing with the priestess
Everyone is flying to the Sun

The trash can's overflowing with tomorrow morning's refuse
Chasing after moonbеams in the sun
Once wherе there was plenty, the gaping holes are empty
We're chasing after moonbeams in the sun

[Chorus]
Running through the trees, catching falling leaves
Chasing with the hare and with the hound
Running with the devil, chasing with the priestess
Everyone is flying to the Sun
Dancing off into the sky, in an everlasting chain of loneliness
Across the rainbow we will fly, chasing after love and happiness

The scientist speaks with wisdom, he talks of global warming
He's chasing after moonbeams in the sun
The spaceship Earth is spinning, to its end in the beginning
We're chasing after moonbeams in the sun

[Chorus]
Running through the trees, catching falling leaves
Chasing with the hare and with the hound
Running with the devil, chasing with the priestess
Everyone is flying to the Sun

Dancing off into the sky, in an everlasting chain of loneliness
Across the rainbow we will fly, chasing after love and happiness

Earth is spinning helplessly, among the Milk Way
The stars are shining, asteroids tumbling
Comets flying, black holes gaping, wild
