Late last night,
When all the stars were bright,
You came in my dream until,
She came in and speaking as the wind,
Saying that we must try,
To explore this purple sky,
Upon the wings that fly tomorrow.
We must try to keep our world in sight,
knowing that the change must come,
Silver light of our lunar orb in flight,
As our eyes greet the dawn,
Only grateful to be borne,
Upon the wings that fly tomorrow.
Moon shine, love to turn the tides,
But your light is all we need.
So shine on shine,
Illuminate the sign,
That will guide us through this night,
And our time is slowly undermined,
As we dare to succeed,
Be there so much that we need,
Upon the wings that fly tomorrow.
Together we will try,
To get there by and by,
Upon the wings that fly tomorrow.
