  G#
The light was leaving in the west it was blue
  C#                     G#
The children's laughter sang
And skipping just like the stones they threw
  C#                            C#
Their voices echoed across the way
D#7
It's getting late

G#          F#           C#
And it was just another night
        D#7          G#
With a sunset and a moonrise
 F#         C#                D#7
Not so far behind to give us just enough light
 G#         F#               C#
To lay down underneath the stars
                D#7            G#
We listened to papa's translations
         F#                 C#
Of the stories across the skies
            D#7            G#
We drew our own constellations

  G#
The west winds often last too long
C#
And when they calm down, nothing ever
           G#
Feels the same
Sheltered under the Kamani tree
 C#                      G#
Waiting for the passing rain
Clouds keep moving to uncover the sea
  C#                                G#
Stars up above us chasing the day away
To find the stories that we sometimes need
 C#
Listen close enough and all else fades
 D#7
Fades away

G#          F#           C#
And it was just another night
        D#7          G#
With a sunset and a moonrise
 F#           C#              D#7
Not so far behind to give us just enough light
 G#         F#               C#
To lay down underneath the stars
          D#7
Listen to all translations
G#       F#                 C#
Of the stories across the sky
            D#7
We drew our own constellations
