Gibbons, John - A Spaceman Came Travelling Lyrics

A spaceman came travelling on a ship from afar
To us lightyears of time since his mission did start
And over a village he halted his craft
And it hung in the sky like a star
Like a star

La la la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la
La la la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la
And it went la la la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la

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

La la la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la
La la la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la

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

La la la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la
La la la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la
And it went la la la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la

Peace and goodwill to all men
And love for the child
