His greasy fingers strung together and stretching 'cross the sky

A skunk that scratches and is leather a sign from up on high

And shivering we cling together and watch it pass us by

For falling like a spiny feather the tears begin to cry

Twisting, turning bodies burning look up from where they lie

To see the stars and heaven's journey flashing 'cross the sky

You hold my arm and wait forever and look me in the eye

For falling like a spiny feather the tears begin to cry

His greasy fingers strung together and stretching cross the sky

A skunk that scratches and is leather a sign from up on high

And shivering we cling together and watch it pass us by

For falling like a spiny feather the tears begin to cry
