We're living on a star fighting for light,
running in fear from the never seen night.
We're begging for the freedom to imprison ourselves
And banish the queen of love from our hearts.
How I wish I could hide in the stows of my mind,
Stay there and wait with memories to find.
Alas, I cannot, so I'll wait for the time
The night truly comes and the moon starts to shine.
Then cover your eyes sweet children of light,
Cover your eyes to see stars in the night.
Lay still and dream weary children of light,
Lay still and dream of fire winking midflight.
And when the moon falls in its fight with the day
rise up and dance in the sun and its rays,
and when they all ask where the stars went to lie
look up and show them the stars in your eyes.
