STARS IN HEAVEN

 

Why are there so many stars up in Heaven

What makes them shine so bright?

Could they just be the souls of departed

Watching on a cloudless night?

 

Why are we downcast, on nights cold and soundless?

When clouds shield those stars out of sight

Is it the twinkle, or just pure and simple

That they sparkle and twinkle all night.

 

(chorus)

Are they just lost souls, adrift in Heaven

In search of a place they’d rather be

Are they just random, or folk in tandem

A part of a whole family.

 

(Instrumental interlude)

 

Why do stars disappear in the morning

And they’re no longer in sight  

Why are they biding, could they be hiding

While the whole world is lit with sunlight

 

But come the evening, daytime relieving

Once more the stars shine so bright

As one after one, they slowly appear

To sparkle both yellow and white

Why does the moon come steal the glory

While crossing the Heavens in flight?

Though at first furtive, it becomes more assertive

Until we are bathed in moonlight

 

Then with the waning, without need of explaining

Everything seems to come right

As the stars again tremble and then reassemble

With the sounds and the music of night.

 

(Chorus)

Are they just lost souls, adrift in the Heavens

In search of a place they’d rather be

Or some just waiting, with friends congregating

A part of the whole family.

 

Awaiting for you, waiting for you

Awaiting for you, for you and for me ……..

 

(instrumental outro)
