For Whom by Janet Bates

Lyrics appear below
This song will be used in the film "Men In Black, The Dark Watchers," to be released in April of 2012.
For whom does the wind howl so loud in the night?
Whose path does the bright northern star disclose?
For whom do the rains quench the ever present thirst?
Whose garden does the sun persuade to grow?
Chorus:
The sun and the wind and the stars and the rains.
We have only borrowed to use for awhile. When we are done, we will have to give them back.
Let's give them back the way they came.
For whom does the earth turn around every day?
For whom does the moon raise its face in the night?
Who breathes in the air from the flowers & trees?
For whom does the sun, with its warmth still provide?
Chorus
For whom will the sun rise a million years from now?
Whose faces lit by the moons steady glow?
Whose gardens will grow from the warm summer rains?
What windmills will turn by the winds that will blow?
Chorus
Performed by Janet & Ken Bates
