Thread Name: What Song for Your Funeral?
Subject: RE: What Song for Your Funeral?
From Way Up Here - Malvina Reynolds
From way up here, the earth is very small it's just a little ball of rock and sea and sand no bigger than my hand.
From way up here, the earth is very small they shouldn't fight at all down there upon that little sphere
Their time is short A life is just a day You'd think they'd find a way You'd think they'd get along And fill their magic days with song....
From way up here, the earth is very small it's just a little ball so small so beautiful and clear.
Their time is short A life is just a day Must be a better way To use the time that runs Among the distant suns.
From way up here the earth is very small it's just a little ball so small so beautiful and dear.
From way up here the earth is very small it's just a little ball of rock and sea and sand No bigger than my hand.
