Strawbs - Starshine/Angel Wine



Starshine



I can hear you

Like the rain that falls so sweetly

I can hear you

Like the sun that dries the fields

And feeds the grain

I can hear your spirit

Singing sweet refrains

Oh little starshine

Oh little starshine.



I can feel you

Like a breath of fresh green pastures

I can feel you

Like the touch of summer breezes

In my hair

I can sense your presence

Flowing through the air

Oh little starshine

Oh little star.



Angel Wine



The sun was sinking in the west

The sky was burning wild

As evening showed its starlit crest

I looked deep into my child.



Oh fool, oh mortal man

We live life as we can

But now who do I think I am.



The world is black, the world is white

The world is you and I

We surely ought to see the light

That burns in children's eyes.



Oh Lord give us a sign

The world's a bitter crime

That soon we may taste angel wine.



I see my future clearly now

My world is full of song

Be truthful to yourself my child

And your heart will be forever strong.
