HOW BRILLIANT IS THE SKY TONIGHT
How brilliant is the light tonight
how brilliant is it
Flashes like meteors boom and bang
A festival of fireworks
Heading here and there
How brilliant is the sky tonight
how brilliant is it
But some won’t see it
Others will
A child points at a flashing light
And then they are in it
How deadly is the night tonight
How chilling is it
