Out of the night has come the day
Out of the night, our small earth.
Out of the night has come the day
Out of the night, our small earth.
Our words drift away.
Our words journey
to find those who will listen.

Less than a pearl in the sea of stars,
we are a lost island in the shadows.

It may be our words become lost.
It may be our words find nothing, find no-one.
It may be our words find nothing, find no-one.
We call into the distance...
