Spaceman Came Travelling (Live)

A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar
'Twas light years of time since his mission did start
And over a village he halted his craft
And it hung in the sky like a star
Just like a star

He followed a light and came down to a shed
Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed
A bright light of silver shone 'round his head
And he had the face of an angel
And they were afraid

Then the stranger spoke, he said, "Do not fear
I come from a planet a long way from here
And I bring a message for mankind to hear"
And suddenly the sweetest music
Filled the air

And it went, "La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
Peace, goodwill to all men
And love for the child"

La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
Oh-oh-oh

This lovely music went trembling through the ground
And many were wakened on hearing that sound
And travellers on the road, the village they found
By the light of that ship in the sky
Which shone all around

And just before dawn at the paling of the sky
The stranger returned and said, "Now I must fly
When two thousand years of your time has gone by
This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry"

And it went, "La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
Peace, goodwill to all men
And love for the child"

La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la
This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry

Oh, the whole world is waiting, waiting to hear the song again
There are thousands standing on the edge of the world
And a star is moving somewhere, the time is nearly here
This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry

Thank you
We're gonna finish up with that, "Eastern Wind"
Thank you
