Photosynthesis - The Tangent

[01:00.93]The Light falls so softly on the village's roofs
[01:08.16]Spreads indistinctly over valleys and plains
[01:14.4]The last grasps of daylight hand onto the trees
[01:21.09]The branches retracting...becoming one with the night
[01:28.47]In their secret places the late birds bed down
[01:33.990005]In steeples and pylons their life carries on
[01:41.369995]And in TV-lit windows we all find our home
[01:47.91]On the great star-lit landscape we see from the air
[01:54.69]We need no more fear of the dark than the morning
[02:03.63]For light needs a place it can play
[02:12.78]Shadows eclipsing the light that remains
[02:19.44]As ten million hot suns beat down on they prey
[02:26.04001]While one half is blinded the other watches in awe
[02:32.82]The universe turning on its infinite way
[02:39.63]Watch as the night sky revolves into daybreak
[02:48.75]Wait for the first rays of light
[02:55.05]Think of new lives, think of new days
[03:02.22]Here as the sunlight goes under
[03:06.69]Hope our new hopes, dream our new dreams
[03:11.25]Think of new worlds without number
[03:15.45]And all we can do is imagine the morning
[03:24.12]On worlds that we reach in our dreams
[04:00.39]The sun is still shining where the eagle set down
[04:22.86]And on the people 'neath the westerly sky
[04:40.98]But keep our eyes skyward with hope in our hearts
[05:19.11]For space is not black, and dark's a new day
