Earth a Little Lighter Songtext
von Ricky Ross

When you walk across the earth
Do the horses hear you first
And lift their heads as if concerned
That something has occurred
To this world
To this world

You waved me from your car
You looked so changed I couldn′t wave back
Our life past in a blur
I never really knew you at all


Maybe I saw you that time
Because you burned a little brighter
On your way out of this world
To make the earth a little lighter.

To make
The earth
A little ...lighter

Shining ships and far off planes
That head for ports unnamed
Stand more chance of being tamed
Than a life finally unchained

To make the earth a little lighter
To make the earth a little lighter
