There will come soft rains in time When you are grey and older Not a single cloud will know The burdens we have shouldered Earth, if I may stand on your stage Larger than life, and life as large as we are Ah-ah-ah, this lonely light looms in the cosmic night We fell in love and spilled our blood on the pale blue dot Every way erodes the lines Still there's no good, there's only kind Kids and killers shed their bones on this The only home we've known Earth, if I may stand on your stage Larger than life, and life as large as we are Ah-ah-ah, this lonely light looms in the cosmic night We fell in love and spilled our blood on the pale blue dot And by design, the iris of your eye Hides the hints of amber in the artificial light Once brilliant blue, so innocent and new Wider than the endless night around our tiny view
