Oh, great Quetzalcoatl, I approach thee with a question. Why, pray tell, does Princess Celestia choose to leave our beloved Princess Luna on the moon for a thousand years, when she could have brought her back at any time? This is in reference to your glorious album, "Nightfall." Peace be unto you, Sir LasFas.

The sun came up after a long night.
Everyone was celebrating Celestia’s victory over the Nightmare.
But she was still distraught with the entrapment of her sister.\

I will come back for you.
Just give me a day or two.
After all this neglect
I could never forget you.

She looked towards her citizens
And watched them all enjoy themselves again.
And for the first time in a while,
Celestia felt good.

I will come back for you.
Just give me a week or two.
After all of our neglect
I would never forget you.

The citizens all praised Her name
And celebrated the sun.
But for the first time in a while,
The power felt good.

I will come back for you
Just give me a month or two.
After all my neglect
I should never forget you.

The ponies kneeled before her
As they always did in the past.
For the first time in a while,
The unitary control felt good.

I will come back for you
Just give me a year or two…
After all my regrets
I can’t help but forget
You.
