Starmaker (Goodbye)
I watch you shyly from behind the curtains
Every single fragrant night
Confidently, you roam the sky
Leaving a trace of stars so bright
I love the miracles you bring to life
Sequins hanging in the sky
So I can melt as I watch your pride
And the way you float, the way you smile
All the allure I found in you
And all the marvels that you do
Oh—Starmaker
You're the one who crowns the night
With magic dust, and crystal sight
A sign of peace amid a fight
As free as an angel; a tailless kite
When I see you there, I start to melt
For all this time, with this I've dealt
This feeling inside
Which I've tried to hide
You leave my knots
Smoothly untied
This kind of love
I've never tried
I wish, with you, up there I'd glide
With all my feelings you have toyed
Obliviously you've filled the void
But thank you, thank you
For all the times
You let me watch you in the sky
No words can shape into your being
Or paint a picture that's worth seeing
But you will remain in my mind
Now, and every other night
Your passion your charm,
I stretch out my arms
You give me this vibe
Which I cannot describe…
You make me hate the morning shine
Because I know by night you're mine
I eagerly wait for the nighttime
When I can get drunk on you like wine
Intoxicated by the pale moonlight
As I watch you when you're about to take flight
All I know is you will be gone
And all what's left will be your reflection
And I should probably try to be strong
So I'll patiently await your resurrection
I'll gaze for nights at your constellation
A subtle symbol of my salvation
You put the angels and seraphs to shame
Every time they hear your name
Because you're more heavenly than any of them
You color the sky with radiant gems
I got your stars under my skin
An itch—a longing so deep within
I think about you night and day
And you wash all the pain away
As I gaze at you, blessing the sky right now
You carry my heart—and you know how
I know you're shy
Scared to declare
Your love for me
In the tropical air
Oh, Starmaker
Come down here
Let's lay down
Beneath moonbeams
Confess your love
Right now to me
God, this seems just so surreal
To say your words, you bend you head—
Then I wake up, alone in my bed
No Starmaker, no maker of stars
And the tangible sky just seems so dark
It's all so real now, it's all so clear—
With no You
To light up my life
There's no more need for me to strive
For love or life
For peace or light
And this, to you,
Is my goodbye…
