Elvis Costello - Lost In The Stars - Текст песни

(Kurt Weill/Maxwell Anderson) 
Before Lord God made the sea and the land 
He held all the stars in the palm of his hand 
And they ran through his fingers like grains of sand 
And one little star fall alone 

Then the Lord God hunted through the wild night air 
For the little dark star in the wind down there 
And he stated and promised he'd take special care 
So it wouldn't get lost again 

Now, man don't mind if the stars grow dim 
And the clouds blow over and darken him 
So long as the Lord God's watching over him 
Keeping track how it all goes on 

But I've been walking through the night and the day 
Till my eyes get weary and my hair turns grey 
And sometimes it seems maybe God's gone away 
Forgetting the promise that we heard him say 

And we're lost out here in the stars 
Little stars, big stars 
Blowing through the night 

And we're lost out here in the stars 
Little stars, big stars 
Blowing through the night 

And we're lost out here in the stars
