Nova Heart

Architects of the world

I walk your streets and live in your towns

Temporarily

Architects of the world

You've served us well until now

But soon we'll be on our own

And I'll sleep in your

Nova heart

As things come apart

I'll hide in your

Nova heart

At ease with the thought

That this nova won't burn out

Gentlemen of the world

I read your books and look at your art

Hesitantly

Gentlemen of the world

You want to educate our young

But soon they'll be on their own

And I'll sleep in your

Nova heart

As things come apart

I'll hide in your

Nova heart

At ease with my thoughts

And I'll sleep in your

Nova heart

As things come apart

and I'll rest in your

Nova heart

At ease with the thought

That this nova won't burn out.
