Our Children Were the Stars Lyrics

And oh, go tell the mountainside, go tell the mountainside
Throw its roots to the sea
And oh, how you? ve grown up so wild, how you? ve grown up so wild
You? re like the mustard seed now

Hey, but I was the sun she was the moon
I was the sun she was the moon
I was the sun and our children were the stars

And oh, who we touched like the sands
It was just like the sands on the shores to come
And oh, and to sail in your eyes, through those dawn colored eyes
Yeah, we could leave today mama

And I was the sun she was the moon
I was the sun she was the moon
I was the sun and our children were the stars

And I was the sun she was the moon
I was the sun she was the moon
I was the sun and our children were the stars

Now heaven, you let your hair hang down
You let your hair hang down all along your breast
Now heaven, you let your hair down
You let your hair hang down all across my flesh
Now, heaven, you let your hair hang down
You let your hair hang down ooh, that? s the way it? s best
