earth and sun and moon

in the morning we will wake up and take to the air

look back at the planet - i'm glued to my chair

southern half is burning as we climb through the cky

sea birds softly falling

smoke way up high

there's the contours of the mountains

the deserts and plains

and a hurricane is blowing

and it turns once again

now there's oil spills in the water where columbus once sailed

and there's history and mystery and it's rolling away

i wish you could see this great mystery

earth and sun and moon

human tribe

thin blue line

earth and sun and moon will survive

sediment is flowing from river to sea

now where are the mighty nations

no lines to be seen

an axe upon the broken ground the sigh of the trees

and it's floating in the ether

it brings me to my knees

too messed up to care

anyone got a wing and a prayer

in the blink of an eye

thank you and goodnight

earth and sun and moon

human tribe

one thin blue line

earth and sun and moon will survive

will survive

we will survive
