Nine planets around the sun
Only one does the sun embrace
Upon this watered one
So much do we take for granted
So let us sleep outside tonight
Lay down in our mother's arms
For here we can rest safely
If green should turn to grey
Would our hearts still bloody beat?
If the mountains crumble away
And the river dry
Would it stop the stepping feet?
So let us sleep outside tonight
Lay down in our mother's arms
For here we can rest safely
Take all that we can get
When it's done
Nobody left to bury
Nobody left to dig the holes
And here we will rest safely
One sweet world
Around this star is spinning
One sweet world
In her breath I'm swimming
And here I will rest in peace
Only one does the sun embrace
Upon this watered one
So much do we take for granted
So let us sleep outside tonight
Lay down in our mother's arms
For here we can rest safely
If green should turn to grey
Would our hearts still bloody beat?
If the mountains crumble away
And the river dry
Would it stop the stepping feet?
So let us sleep outside tonight
Lay down in our mother's arms
For here we can rest safely
Take all that we can get
When it's done
Nobody left to bury
Nobody left to dig the holes
And here we will rest safely
One sweet world
Around this star is spinning
One sweet world
In her breath I'm swimming
And here I will rest in peace
