The Stars In Their Places

When all the songs have been sung

And all the music has been played.

When all the rhythms have been strummed

And all the guitars put away.

When all the stars are in their places

And the angels in their beds

Moonlight shining on their faces

Love cradling their peaceful heads.

When all the bullets have been fired

And all the cannons laid down low

When all the generals have retired

And there’s no other place to go.

When all the stars are in their places

And the angels in their beds

Moonlight shining on their faces

Love cradling their peaceful heads.

Between the guitar and the gun

Behind the darkness and the light

Before the rising of the sun

When all things tumble into night.
