Bonnie Shaljean Lyr Req: Lost in the Stars (from Walter Huston) (23) RE: Lyr Req: Lost in the Stars (from Walter Huston) 25 Sep 14


Just noticed there's a line missing in the LITS words above:

But I've been walking all the night and the day
Till my eyes get weary and my head turns gray
And sometimes it seems maybe God's gone away
Forgetting the promise that we heard him say
And we're lost out here in the stars...

I first saw a live performance of this show when I was seven and it broke my heart.

Bet all you folkies would love The Hills Of Ixopo too, which is the opening number and uses the poetical words straight from Alan Paton's text. Magical.

There is a lovely road that runs from Ixopo
Into the hills
These hills are grass-covered and rolling
And they are lovely beyond any singing of it
