Urania Sings

*Urania waits in the cold of space
 Tempts astronomers from their sleep
 Teaches things beyond the reach of human ken
 And gives them answers in their dreams
 Tide and Time are her lovers
 And her heart is a star
 She calls the mind to mystery
 I heed her call each night at the setting of the sun
 And learn the song that the heavens sing
 When Urania sings she opens up my mind
 Urania sings of the mysteries of space and time
 She sings, and the heavens open wide
 Urania sings and the Universe is mine
 When Urania sings
 They say astronomers in the ancient days
 Spent their nights with a beautiful Muse
 Dark as space are the tresses of her night-black hair
 And on her brow the crescent moon
 Stars join in on the chorus
 And she wakes me up at night
 With her celestial symphonies
 I call her name on the essence of a night-long prayer
 She shows me secrets in her wings
 When Urania sings she opens up my mind
 Urania sings of the mysteries of space and time
 She sings, and the heavens open wide
 Urania sings and the Universe is mine
 When Urania sings
 Urania calls in the dark of night
 She lures astronomers from their beds
 Tells them things that they can never understand
 Puts strange questions in their heads
 I'll never be afraid of the dark again
 She's got the that moonlight in her eyes
 She likes to wear her stardust party dress
 She takes me dancing in the sky
 When Urania sings she opens up my mind
 Urania sings of the mysteries of space and time
 She sings, and the heavens open wide
 Urania sings and the Universe is mine
 When Urania sings
 When Urania sings she opens up my mind
 Urania sings of the mysteries of space and time
 She sings, and the heavens open wide
 Urania sings and the Universe is mine
 When Urania sings
