Children of the Universe Lyrics by Comus

To Keep From Crying

0

Watching for a shooting star
To fall down from the sky
They do, they do, you know they do
They do from time to time
Soft, across the universe
Before your very eyes
They do, they do, you know they do
They do from time to time
Wondering of the contouring (?)
Just what, and how, and why?
They do, they do, you know they do
They do from time to time
Of angels, gods, and holy ones
They drift, or float, or fly
They do, they do, you know they do
They do from time to time
Beyond the clouds they climb
Though night may shrink
From sight, I blink
As daylight winks
But stars twinkle on
Inside my head
Children
Of the universe
Return again
Return to the sun and shine
On everyone
Everyone
Everyone
Thinking now of earthly things
That wilt, or wear, or die
They do, they do, you know they do
They do from time to time
Our lives are ?????
They bare them with a sigh
They do, they do, you know they do
They do from time to time
But me, I never mind
I roam and come, and go
One thing I know is that
The stars twinkle on
Inside my head
Children
Of the universe
Return again
Return to the sun and shine
On everyone
Everyone
Everyone
Everyone, everyone, everyone
Children, children
Shine on, everyone
Shine on, everyone
Shine on, everyone
Shine on
