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
