Lunar Lullaby
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Thousands of miles without moving
In the silence and stillness we're turning
Who scattered the stars in the field of night?
Say it's all right, say it's all right,
Well say it's all right.
Ocean storm-thrown boats collide
With waves of no direction
With compass set up on a star
Head for the port's protection.
Faster than light we're not ageing,
So where does the time go we're saving?
Give me a sermon for sleep tonight
Won't you say it's all right, say it's all right,
Well say it's all right.
And the driftwood it collides
With blind boats on the water
Oh, sad I watched the moon fall down,
But the river safely caught her.
Confusion of stars where's the pattern
To chart us away from collision?
We are dust, we are spark, we were light before dark
It was all right, it is all right,
And it'll be all right.
Above, below, worlds collide
In the before and after
Oh happy to watch the sun go down
And join the angels' laughter.
