Ghosts
I - Starshine
Cronk

I can hear you, like the rain that falls so sweetly
I can hear you, like the sun that dries the fields and feeds the grain
I can hear your spirit singing sweet refrains
Oh little starshine, oh little starshine.

I can feel you, like a breath of fresh green pastures
I can feel you, like the touch of summer breezes in my hair
I can feel your presence flowing through the air
Oh little starshine, oh little star.

II - Angel Wine
Cronk

The sun was sinking in the West
The sky was burning wild
As evening showed its starlit crest
I looked deep into my child.

Oh fool, oh mortal man
We live life as we can
But now who do I think I am ?

The world is black, the world is white
The world is you and I
We surely ought to see the light
That burns in children's eyes.

Oh Lord, give us a sign
The world's a bitter crime
That soon we may taste angel wine.

I see my future clearly now
My world is full of song
Be truthful to yourself, my child
And your heart will be forever strong.

Oh Lord, give us a sign
The world's a bitter crime
That soon we may taste angel wine.

Oh Lord, give us a sign
The world's a bitter crime
That soon we may taste angel wine.
