	作词 : Carpenter
	The stars are out tonight, the breeze is warm and light
	As I'm walking right back to you
	Along the dreaming road, the only way to go
	When I'm travelling by our code that north is true
	Once upon a time these same bright stars did shine
	Down the center line leading here
	Nearly thirty years ago, now the map is stained and old
	But on the dreaming road the coast is clear
	I loved you more than life and I guess that's why I died
	When you would not love me back I couldn't survive
	And so the girl I was turned into someone else
	Keeping to myself and from the light
	I wasn't odd or strange, just quietly rearranged
	Sometimes the biggest change stays out of sight
	So without plot or clue I ran away from you
	I was twenty-two and drunk in Amsterdam
	Got robbed in Paris, France, got home on one last chance
	And without a backward glance I began again
	And the days just kept on rolling and I just kept on going
	Without a thought of ever slowing down
	I made this long road mine but it was not the dreaming kind
	Too many lost souls trying to get found
	But beneath this ancient sky, one night we did collide
	And the hole I thought was sealed opened wide
	I tried so hard again not to fall back in
	But you had me then by the throat
	And a strange futility came washing over me
	Almost peacefully I felt the rope
	A million miles goes by in the blink of an eye
	And so I cannot try to slow time down
	And years are made of sand slipping through my hands
	Even faster than the speed of sound
	The stars are out tonight, the breeze is soft and light
	As I'm walking right back to you
	With nothing left to hide, the tears have all been cried
	And the girl who died is walking too
	Down the dreaming road, where the light is always gold
	The air is never cold and always fine
	And north is always true and you are always you
	And I'm that girl you knew once upon a time
