The dark night rolls in after the sun sets
It starts out pitch black but then one by one
A million small stars pour out of buckets
Twinkling like fireflies out of the sun
Frightening things can happen in the dark
But the stars in the sky help guide the way
Couples will walk peacefully through the park
Gazing at the twinkling stars in mid-May
Night crawlers and tiny rodents saunter
Into the new night scene set before them
All of the town people and their brother
Will see the gorgeous sky made just for them
And although the stars come out every night
I still gawk at the brilliance of their light
It starts out pitch black but then one by one
A million small stars pour out of buckets
Twinkling like fireflies out of the sun
Frightening things can happen in the dark
But the stars in the sky help guide the way
Couples will walk peacefully through the park
Gazing at the twinkling stars in mid-May
Night crawlers and tiny rodents saunter
Into the new night scene set before them
All of the town people and their brother
Will see the gorgeous sky made just for them
And although the stars come out every night
I still gawk at the brilliance of their light
