In the morning
When the stars gather to sing
Look to the sky
And see
A chariot winged
A chariot
winged
Soaring
Soaring star walkers
Star walkers
Fire spitting

3. 2. 1.
   Fire
   Beyond the edge of dreams
   Dreams
   The edge of dreams
   Where we have lived
   Lived
   So long
   So long
   Asleep

In the morning when the stars
Gather to sing
Look to the sky and see
See
Our place
Our place
In new worlds
Worlds
And new eternities
