Constellations

Stars are falling down tonight

but i told you i can't see

which one is you, which one is me.

-

Pointing, wishing, trying

to figure out the outline of things,

you're looking for lights in the night

but i'm lost in the lifetimes between.

-

There's a girl who lost her mother

and a bear who got no further

than the ends of both earth and sea;

sitting on a black hole, i never can see.

-

Tomorrow there will be

another sky above me

orion's just another hunter

just too far from his lover.

-

Going to where everyday's morning,

until then, love, i want it to be night,

where you had burnt through heaven

when you said you'll be that fire for me.

-

Stars are falling down tonight

but i told you all i can say

a few had gone into my eyes.
