Lyrics The Night Sky - Mostly Autumn

The Night Sky

Weightlessly you leave the ground
Hanging gently in the breeze
You lift your head to face the stars
And catch the wind above the trees
You know you’re safe, you know you’re there
The night sky rushing through your hair
The shadow cast across the fields
By silver moon that lights the night
Over the mountains over the hills
The changing horizons, you drift through the valleys
Reaching for distance, floating alone
Like an eagle at midnight, under the stars
Through frozen eyes you see the hills
Go rolling by, your spirit fills with wonder
And the freedom to roam the winter sky
You drift into the fragrance of the forest
Swaying gently down below
The warm glow of a village sleeping silently
You rise to meet the bleakness of the mountain
That roll into the distance
A ghost upon the north wind bound for nowhere
To meet the rising sun
