Riding on a comet's tail
She tumbled into life

She reaches up
For a handful of light
Touches it to earth to warn the night
The voices on the wind
Celestial sound
Whispering heaven's here and now

The moon, the tide
The sea of endless sky
She dances with a universe in play
She lights the dark
She knows she is a spark
Even in this new world she feels safe
In the arms of the Milky Way
Orion sneezed and the fourth star fell
He shifted his sword and notched his belt
He caught her laughing
And they both smiled
They felt the spell of a lover's night

The moon, the tide
The sea of endless sky
She dances with a universe in play
She lights the dark
She knows she is a spark
Even in this new world she feels safe
In the arms of the Milky Way

Riding the spiral of light years of stars
Forever's waiting in her backyard

The moon the tide
The sea of endless sky
She dances with a universe in play
She lights the dark
She knows she is a spark
Even in this new world she feels safe
In the arms of the Milky Way
