A Spaceman Came Travelling
Written by Chris be Burgh-1975
From the album Spanish Train and Other Stories

-- | LYRICS |--

A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar,
'Twas light years of time since his mission did start,
And over a village, he halted his craft,
And it hung in the sky like a star, just like a star...

He followed a light and came down to a shed,
Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed,
A bright light of silver shone round his head,
And he had the face of an angel, and they were afraid...

Then the stranger spoke, he said "Do not fear,
I come from a planet a long way from here,
And I bring a message for mankind to hear,"
And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air...

And it went La La...
Peace and goodwill to all men, and love for the child...

This lovely music went trembling through the ground,
And many were wakened on hearing that sound,
And travellers on the road, the village they found,
By the light of that ship in the sky, which shone all round...

And just before dawn at the paling of the sky,
The stranger returned and said "Now I must fly,
When two thousand years of your time has gone by,
This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry..."

And it went La La ... This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry...
And it goes La La... Peace and goodwill to all men, and
Love for the child...
Oh the whole world is waiting, waiting to hear the song again,
There are thousands standing on the edge of the world,
And a star is moving somewhere, the time is nearly here,
This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry...

This song gave me tears. There's a little amount of singers that can make me tear up. You're one of them Karliene. :')

For the longest time The Celtic Woman's cover of this song was my favorite. Until about 30 seconds ago. This has now become my goto version. Truly i shouldn't be surprised anymore but i am still stunned and left in awe every time you release new songs and covers. Karliene over the last three years of listening to your music I have become more and more sure that you are just to put it plainly THE BEES As to say you have such a great and powerful voice and such a wonderful and creative talent. Keep it up and let nothing or no one ever slow you down. Your talent is limitless. I thank you for providing another year of wonderful and beloved music. Your multiple mini albums and other songs have been added to an ever expanding independent artist collection i am so happy to have. Its Artists like you, Ashley Serena and Miracle of Sound that I truly will always gladly support in any way shape or form and will continue to purchase and cherish every song you release. I cant wait to see what 2016 will bring for you all. Merry Christmas, happy New Year and happy all holidays.
And truly thank you for continuing to share such wonderful and beautiful music with us.
You are a truly beautiful Angel in Mind, body and spirit!
and as always

[colarisaka]

I think she has a beautiful voice, and I love the way she uses her hands to articulate the song... I dunno, Karlienne is haunting to say the least! ( and yes, beautiful)
