John Wetton - Watcher Of The Skies Lyrics

Watcher of the skies
Watcher of all
His is a world alone
No world is his own,
He whom life can no longer surprise,
Raising his eyes beholds a planet unknown.
Creatures shaped this planet's soil,
Now their reign has come to an end,
Has life again destroyed life,
Do they play elsewhere,
Do they know more than their childhood games?
Maybe the lizard's shed its tail
This is the end
Of man's long union with earth.
Judge not this race by empty remains
Do you judge god by his creatures
When they are dead?
For now, the lizard's shed its tail
This is the end
Of man's long union with earth.
From life alone to life as one,
Think not now your journey's done
For though you ship be sturdy
No mercy has the sea,
Will you survive on the ocean of being?
Come ancient children hear what I say
This is my parting counsel
For you on your way.
Sadly now your thoughts turn to the stars
Where we have gone
You know you never can go
Watcher of the skies
Watcher of all
This is your fate alone,
This fate is your own.
