The stars on high
Look down on a world in pain.
As time flies by,
our efforts they seem in vain.

So why oh why
Should stars slowly disappear?
Tell me clear
What on Earth's goin' on here?

As forests die
And even the fossils burn.
Can't see the sky.
Hard lessons they go unlearned.

So why oh why
Should stars slowly disappear?
Tell me clear
What on Earth's goin' on here?

INTERLUDE

A silent Spring
In the blink of an eye it's lost.
Funny thing
That noone can count the cost.

So why oh why
Should stars slowly disappear?
Tell me clear
What on Earth's goin' on here?

You might well shout
Has everyone gone quite mad?
The World cries out
If only it weren't so sad.

So why oh why
Should stars slowly disappear?
Tell me clear
What on Earth's goin' on here?

Why oh why
Should stars slowly disappear?
Tell me clear
What on Earth's goin' on here?
