Stars In Our Eyes

© 2017 Mark Cote

once upon a slow-motion caterpillar night
when bullfrogs sing to pass the time
crickets laughing right out loud
to the chaos that's going down

ants marching to a spider's beat
will never know what spider's eat
until it's too late
irony will be their fate

(chorus) underwater in the sky
                  all they do is wonder why
                  we see it all with stars in our eyes ( stars in our eyes)
                  underwater in the sky
                  when it's gone like fireflies
                  we see it all with stars in our eyes

another view of the same old day
we see the clouds as palm trees sway
will they be prepared when the rains they come
or washed away as worlds come undone

(chorus)
(instrumental)

crickets laughing right out loud
to the chaos that's going down
