The Stars

When you found him he was lying in the road
 You held him in your arms so he was safe
 And you talked for hours, soft and quiet
 You watched the light change as if you came from it
 And you both laughed at the dumb things we repeat
 That buy us time or keep us with the other sheep
 We marry our fear but what makes the night not so deep
 Is someone to watch over us while we sleep
 You found him lying on the road
 You traveled miles but never got too far
 He lost his heart when you were bringing out the stars
 When you were bringing out the stars
 And you said
 Isn't the night beautiful
 Feel the weightlessness
 At the heart of things
 It made him laugh
 'Cause it made him remember
 How easy it is
 To love to
 Your arms
 They were everything
 They fill the sky
 Like Jimi's guitar
 And he lost his heart
 When you were bringing out the stars
 Then in the morning
 He walked you down
 He knew
 He had to let you go
 And all day he wore
 A smile
 'Cause he saw the joy
 That's waiting for his soul
