Earth Song Lyrics

Sun...
How can I thank you
You've warmed my heart and soul
You've made my body brown and smooth
Washed away the cold
Moon...
You've made a dreamer out of me
I can see, and I think I can feel it when you
Change your face
Please forgive me if I turn away
I'm just a sleeper
I know that you watch my dreams
You're my heavenly keeper

Heavenly keeper
Heavenly keeper
Just a sleeper
Heavenly keeper, oh '

Stars...

What a mystical woman that you made me
I've seen of times before the human race
As long as I'm breathing
As long as I can move
I'll be strong
Cause I know you've always been in the place
Please forgive me if I turn away
I'm just a sleeper
I know that you watch my dreams
You're my heavenly keeper
Heavenly keeper
Heavenly keeper
Just a sleeper
Heavenly keeper

Never, never, never, never

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
