The Night Sky - words and music by Tim Erskine
play mp3
The Milky Way glows like the whitest satin sash
against the blackest cloth
The dipper spoons out love on you
and fills your heart ’till all your cares are lost
Andromeda reaches out to touch your forehead
bends down to kiss your eyes
The North Star is always there for your confessions
to tell you it’s all right
You can hide away within your mansion
and hoard what you think you’ll bring along when you die
You can have your piece of the action
I’ll just take a piece of the sky
The night sky
The night sky
Long ago I’d lay in fields of grass, alone
beneath the dome of stars
and I’d wonder how to show the world
the peace I found at night in my back yard
A few long years of knocks have done their best
to make me put those dreams away
but everyone finds happiness, joy and hope and love
in their own way
So lock yourself away within your mansion
and hoard what you think you’ll bring along when you die
You can have your piece of the action
I’ll just take a piece of the sky
The night sky
The night sky
