lyrics

Constellations
For Joey and Fiona

Friends we rise and friends we fall.
You pulled me in, out of the cold -
Into the warmth, into your soul.
Some sort of constant, something to hold.

I pray you’ll hold me there all your life,
But your heart’s overflowing as it is.
But I will always be holding you in mine.
We’ve been through too much to give up on this.

And will you take this hope of mine?
In it’s absence what can I find?
Will you dream in constellations every night?

And do you dream in black and white?
What you seeing through those eyes?
Will we burn like constellations, like stars every night?

Constellations.
Constellations.

And the silence would destroy my soul.
Don’t stop talking we can’t let this go.
The sky will crack and we’ll let it rain
To wash away the dark so I can see you again.

Will we be stranded in the sea?
The waves growing too much space between?
I’m so scared of being alone with dark shapes under me.

And do you dream in black and white?
What you seeing through those eyes?
Will we burn like constellations, like stars every night?

Constellations.
Constellations.
Constellations.
Constellations.
Constellations.
Constellations.

And are we treading further apart?
Don’t leave me alone here in the dark.
My brightest light is shining from your heart.

And do you dream in black and white?
Oh what you seeing through those eyes?
Will we burn like constellations, like stars every night?
