|
I'm losing my direction |
|
Something's come between us |
|
It's gettin' hard to do right |
|
I'm searchin' for a sign |
|
They've split us into sections |
|
I'm from Mars and your from |
|
Venus But stranded in the daylight |
|
Nothin' is defined |
|
But as the late summer honey light |
|
Shifts and caresses the buildings... |
|
Dark starry eyes |
|
Searching the skies |
|
Because it's hidden from view |
|
Don't mean it isn't for you |
|
You know we're gonna make it |
|
We've only gotta take it |
|
Cos' it's a dark, dark sky |
|
Holds the |
|
North Star high |
|
And guides us and bathes us |
|
In stillness and sameness and blue |
|
I've made a big decision |
|
In the light of the eternal |
|
I'm gonna be your mirror |
|
And you can mirror me |
|
I'll see you in the bright star |
|
Cushioned by the dark sky |
|
Reflected in the river |
|
Flowing to the sea |
|
And as the reasons and rumours recede |
|
Dyin' on the lesseing breeze |
|
Sweet starry eyes |
|
Immune to surprise |
|
Because it's hidden from view |
|
Don't mean it isn't for you |
|
You know we're gonna make it |
|
We've only gotta take it |
|
And it's a dark, dark sky |
|
Holds the |
|
North Star high |
|
And guides us and bathes us |
|
In stillness and sameness and blue |
|
And blue is the colour of my heart |
|
Since you blew my senses apart |
|
The feeling we're back at the start never ends |
|
As clusters of heavenly jewels |
|
Gaze down on |
|
Earth's lonely fools |
|
Turnin' and twistin' |
|
Resisting the pull of a fate that's already planned |
|
They can't understand |
|
Dark starry eyes |
|
Searching the skies |
|
Because it's hidden from view |
|
Don't mean it isn't for you |
|
You know we're gonna make it |
|
We've only gotta take it |
|
It's a dark, dark sky |
|
Holds the |
|
North Star high |
|
And guides us and bathes us |
|
In stillness and sameness and blue |
|
I'm placing my faith in the brilliance |
|
Of the bright stars and you. |
