Robert Vincent - Light Of The Stars Lyrics

The day is now ending, with a wink and a wave,In their dear constant ritual, the stars flicker their way
To the hearts of the people who wait for their light,
To extinguish their fears of what lives in their night

A constant reminder of how little we are
With our misguided loyalty to what will buy us some time,
So we'll keep up our pity and lower our shame,
Through a spyglass all seeing, never accepting the blame

I'll be here in the light of the stars
I'll be here when the darkness arrives,
You said you'd wait for me under the arms
Of an old oak tree in the light of the stars

As if by some genius of both space and of time We correct all our failings and render benign
All the uninspired souls, who are chasing their tails,
Through life's man-made goals
How we love them to fail
