It's amazing
We thought the sun was gone!
But it's amazing
Like heaven and Earth are one.
The Earth needs to sleep,
It's getting quite late!
It's past the Earth's bedtime,
Don't keep it awake.
Where is the Earth's blanket!
Where is it, dear lord!
Oh there's the Earth's blanket,
Lay in darkness some more.
But the blanket isn't perfect,
Some stars will shine through.
Yes there are some holes there,
The starlight renewed.

It's amazing
We thought the sun was gone!
But it's amazing
Like heaven and Earth are one.
The Earth needs to sleep,
It's getting quite late!
It's past the Earth's bedtime,
Don't keep it awake.
Where is the Earth's blanket!
Where is it, dear lord!
Oh there's the Earth's blanket,
Lay in darkness some more.
But the blanket isn't perfect,
Some stars will shine through.
Yes there are some holes there,
The starlight renewed.
"What if the Earth pulled a blanket over itself to tuck itself in at night, and the stars that shone were simply the tiny holes in that blanket?"
