Light gets in my eyes   In the night time   When the world is painted black   What am I seeing?   City sleeps in doubt   Fade to blackout   Maybe this will bring it back   What am I seeing?   Too high for anyone to know   Must be the light beyond the holes   In the floor of heaven   Above the world   Holes in the floor of heaven      Once I saw a star   If that's what they are   Distant worlds on fire   Set by my maker's hand   Believing just because   Child that I was   In the thing I still desire   To hold my maker's hand   Just like they did so long ago   Must be up there beyond the holes   In the floor of heaven   Above the world      One by one by one by one, ten thousand   Lights came on and on   Last night I thought I saw the hand of God   Above our house   So I waited and watched 'til now   For the presence of your being   Maker of all, seen and unseen   The safety of your arms   Protecting me   Holding me   Don't deny me, please      Please just let me stay here   Where I lay myself down    Don't send me home now   Here, listening to your heart beat   A warm and lonesome sound   Don't send me home now   Blue-green planet lies below   Beneath the light, beyond the holes   In the floor of heaven   Above the world
