Starry Night

by Khaled


Look at you,
so glamorous as you stand all alone.
Right up there by the stars,
shining, even smiling.
People sing about you.
Lovers dance under you.

We stare at your soothing lights,
lighting the dark sheet above me.
Hanging with the white lanterns.
I often wonder if you're lonely.

And every night you rise and shine,
glorified, admired.
No one knows you're so alone,
because you're so envied.

We stare at your soothing lights,
lighting the dark sheet above me.
Hanging with the white lanterns.
Now I know you're lonely.

And every night you draw me,
a beautiful portrait.
And every night you reflect off the water,
lingering alone, watching over me.
I want to drift with you satellite.
I'll soon join you.
After all these years you won't be alone.

I'll soon join the starry night.
I'll soon be with the colors of the night.
You won't be alone.
You won't be alone.

I stare at your soothing lights
lighting the abyss above me.
Hanging with the white lanterns.
I am no longer lonely.
