Spring And Fall: To A Young Child Songtext / Lyric

Suddenly before my eyes

Hues of indigo arise

With them how my spirit sighs

Paint the sky with stars

Only night will ever know

Why the heavens never show

All the dreams there are to know

Paint the sky with stars

Who has paced the midnight sky?

So a spirit has to fly

As the heavens seem so far

Now who will paint the midnight star?

Night has brought to those who sleep

Only dreams they cannot keep

I have legends in the deep

Paint the sky with stars

Who has paced the midnight sky?

So a spirit has to fly

As the heavens seem so far

Now who will paint the midnight star?

Place a name upon the night

One to set your heart alight

And to make the darkness bright

Paint the sky with stars.
