A Million Bright Stars

I listen to my thoughts
Turning over in my head
And now my mind is caught
As I’m rolling over in my bed
I’d think it wise to see
Early birds get the good worms
And wouldn’t you agree?
Your beauty would make any man turn

How intoxicating you are
Like the finest red wine
And like a million bright stars
You, my dear, do shine

You are
Like a million bright stars
Shining down on my life
In the deadest of night
Just when
I thought these feelings would end
You took over my heart
And I’m back at the start
And like a million bright stars
Baby, you shine, you shine, you shine

I listen to my heart
Beating faster in rhythm
Ready to fall apart
If I fail to cross this chasm
I’d think it lovely to hear
Your voice speaking to me now
Babe, I wish you were here
And, well, I really miss you somehow

How coating are these feelings
Like the finest varnish
And the night is concealing
That which was garnished

You are
Like a million bright stars
Shining down on my life
In the deadest of night
Just when
I thought these feelings would end
You took over my heart
And I’m back at the start
And like a million bright stars
Baby you shine, you shine, you shine

I dream of moonless nights
I pray for sunless days
I look for a chance that I might
See the stars shine at the height of May
Warm budding flowers
Lit up by the person you are
The thunderous trees tower
In opulence observing
These million bright stars

You are
Like a million bright stars
Shining down on my life
In the deadest of night
Just when
I thought these feelings would end
You took over my heart
And I’m back at the start
And like a million bright stars
Baby you shine, you shine, you shine
