earth a little lighter
When you walk across the earth,Do the horses hear you first And lift their heads as if concerned,That something has occurred To this world.............To this world You waved me from your car,You looked so changed I couldn't wave back Life past in a blur,I never really knew you at all Hmmm........................Hmmm........................Hmmm Maybe I saw you that time,Because you burned a little brighter On your way out of this world,To make the earth a little lighter. To make...... the earth..... a little .....lighter Shining ships on far off plains,That head for ports unnamed Stand more chance of being tamed,Than a life finally unchanged To make the earth a little lighter,To make the earth a little lighter
