There is life in shadowed caverns where the gray-blue gardens grow in the forests and the deserts in the wind and in the snows and it's all the precious cargo of our fragile spaceship earth and its countless voices cry on Let us live Let us live The miracle is that they're here at all in the timeless night We are all fabric of life this miracle may never come again the planet is alive let it live let us live In the roaring soaring cities in the mills and in the minds in the ice fields and the rice fields people work and live their lives and they strive to raise their children hoping somehow they'll survive Is it all to much to ask for let them live let them live it's a thousand million light years to the farthest fringe of space and there may be nothing out there even like the human race and we may be all alone then on our tiny island home and the planet is alive oh let it live let it live
