Carl - aeseaes

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

Oh, 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

'Til 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

Oh, 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
