The Light Outlives the Star
There are stars so distantThe light that left 'em ages ago just came into viewThat twinkling we're seeing nowMay be from a star that burned out ages agoWhen I was young like youThat's the wayThat's the way our people areHe ain't gone long as he shines onIn our heartsAnd just so we knowRight where you areGod lets the light outlive the starThe stars we see in the sky at nightAre there all day but they're lost in the sunlightFor without darkness, stars cannot shineAs without sorrow, joy will be benignThat's the wayThat's the way our people areHe ain't gone long as he shines onIn our heartsAnd just so we knowRight where you areGod lets the light outlive the starSongtexteOh and that's the wayThat's the way our people areHe ain't gone long as he shines on and onIn our heartsAnd just so we knowBrother, right where you areGod lets the light outlive the star
