The sun is setting now,
the day shall go to rest.
And the birds that have flown,
shall go back to their nests.
The sun is setting now,
and darkness looms ahead.
Our feet are weary, our eyes are tired,
We look for comfort that only night provides.
We shall go on our way,
trying to make it home.
Though we can’t feel for now,
the warmth that we have known.
Still we’d try to make it through,
we’d make it through for you.
We’d hold each other’s hands,
and love each other true.
We’d hold the hope we have,
until the morning comes,
We’d search the skies to find,
the comfort of the stars.
