Last night I dreamed I was looking down
On the planet Earth a-spinning 'round and 'round
And as I cast my gaze about
I watched her lovely light go out
The light went out.

And floating in the black of space
I was looking into God's own face
And in His hand He held this tiny Earth
He said, "Well ain't it a shame what they've done to her
After I'd shown them to the holy road

Well, I laid a bounty in their hands
and only gave them ten commands
But they never learned their lessons very well
And they drove My garden straight to hell."

 

- from the song "Holy Road" by Dan Fogelberg, on the album "River of Souls"
