Somewhere in the Milky Way

Somewhere in the Milky Way
      it’s not raining
there are blue skies and
      people are going about
their business
      with broad smiles
and a spring
      in their step

As evening falls
      lovers stand
below a full moon
      bathing in its light

Somewhere in the Milky Way
      there’s a world
free from discord
      a world of peace and love
a world where you might
      want to be forever
call it heaven
      call it what you will
it exists somewhere
      in the Milky Way
