Now the piper stands alone Waiting for a sign that will be given As they close the gates of dawn Hiding from the dark, they will be driven As I stand before you now Saying things I dream about You wonder how I've seen All the things that you have missed out The question will arise How they can survive but they will shiver And they look with anxious eyes Melting like the snow into a river Now all this will come to pass The promise has broken all Your fathers of ages past Now they only wait for the call Lonesome star Mother earth Lonesome star Is it worth? Did you ask her how old you are? To wonder if you've come far Lonesome star Lonesome star Lonesome star Lonesome star Mother earth Lonesome star Mother earth Lonesome star Lonesome star Lonesome star
