Song lyrics

The light was leaving,
In the west it was blue,
The children's laughter sang,
And skipping
Just like the stones they threw
The voices echoed across the way,
It's getting late...

It was just another night
With the sunset and the moonrise
Not so far behind
To give us just enough light
To lay down underneath the stars,
Listen to papas translations
Of the stories across the sky,
We drew our own constellations

The west winds often last too long,
The wind may calm down,
Nothing ever feels the same.
Sheltered under the Kamani tree,
Waiting for the passing rain,
Clouds keep moving to uncover the scene
Stars above are chasing the day away
To find the stories
That we sometimes need,
Listen close enough,
All else fades,
Fades away...

It was just another night
With the sunset and the moonrise
Not so far behind
To give us just enough light
To lay down underneath the stars,
Listen to all the translations
Of the stories across the sky,
We drew our own constellations
