Sky on a Winter's Night
Sky on a Winter's Night
As a child I longed to see
Clear bright nights and frost on trees
When my father helped me find
Constellations bright
Even in the town it seemed
Stars were bright and planets clear
Pinpoint lights in trillions beamed
Lighting up the sky
Mars and Venus, Jupiter
Plough, Orion, Polar Star
Milky Way that spirals far
Lighting up the night
Now even in the countryside
An orange glow is scattered wide
Blanketing the midnight skies
Hiding all the stars
But you can see the Northern Lights
The myriad of stars so bright
In majestic havens
On our crowded busy Isles
Mars and Venus, Jupiter
Plough, Orion, Polar Star
Milky Way that spirals far
Lighting up the night
A century is passed and gone
Since my sailor dad was born
He learned to navigate alone
Guided by the stars
Mars and Venus, Jupiter
Plough, Orion, Polar Star
Milky Way that spirals far
Lighting up the night
Lighting up the night
Lighting up the night
As a child I longed to see
Clear bright nights and frost on trees
When my father helped me find
Constellations bright
Even in the town it seemed
Stars were bright and planets clear
Pinpoint lights in trillions beamed
Lighting up the sky
Mars and Venus, Jupiter
Plough, Orion, Polar Star
Milky Way that spirals far
Lighting up the night
Now even in the countryside
An orange glow is scattered wide
Blanketing the midnight skies
Hiding all the stars
But you can see the Northern Lights
The myriad of stars so bright
In majestic havens
On our crowded busy Isles
Mars and Venus, Jupiter
Plough, Orion, Polar Star
Milky Way that spirals far
Lighting up the night
A century is passed and gone
Since my sailor dad was born
He learned to navigate alone
Guided by the stars
Mars and Venus, Jupiter
Plough, Orion, Polar Star
Milky Way that spirals far
Lighting up the night
Lighting up the night
Lighting up the night
