Kids in the Cosmos
By Mara Levi
Too fit for this world and the rulers who ran it, our young heroes chose to depart
For the wide open arms of a far away planet whose cold winds could warm any heart
Their treacherous journey from here out to there would challenge their every conviction
Then they'd come to their home in the clear purple air and find truth so much stronger than fiction

The planet was covered in waters of green but for islands of soft summer sand
And racing the sunshine was chasing a dream - what a dream to be hand in hand
They'd open the doors to the pale, hardwood floors, their windows to moon upon moon
Then they'd sing to each other of long distant shores, and theyd read to each other til noon

Chorus:
Singing, we might have gone long ago
But we stayed where we wanted to be
And you're only as brave as the tears in your eyes
And you'll always be longing for me

Now planets with waters of purple and green, they have monsters and wars of their own
And dreamers whose glory has never been seen sometimes take on those battles alone
They face all their demons, their wills never bend, their armor the tears of the lonely
And then in the end it's the smile of a friend that says
"I knew you'd get here your own way"

Chorus (2x)
