lyrics

The sun is down, but the daylight is hangin’ round the trees
The sky is darkening, but something still illuminates the leaves
In the alley now the streetlight glows
Right before your eyes the children grow.

And you know this time is sacred now
So you make yourself a silent vow
To live inside the here and now
As the stars catch fire.

It’s all for sale, every single second of the year:
Your world, your time--especially in terms of what you fear.
But the evening light reveals a sign
As it softly scatters warm and fine.

And you know this time is sacred now
So you make yourself a silent vow
To live inside the here and now
As the stars catch fire.

One by one; each a sun.
Each in turn, see them burn the sky

In the alley now the streetlight glows
Right before your eyes the children grow.

And you know this time is sacred now
So you make yourself a silent vow
To live inside the here and now
As the stars catch fire.
