stars at dawn Lyrics

I'm walking by a house upon a hill

The little old man sleeping doesn't see me standing here

I'm watching as they sit pretty and still

The little children growing as we pass another year

I've come to fear

The distant future that's so near

Been praying in a couple years you won't be gone

It's all unclear

If the love I've always held so dear

Will follow me or disappear like stars at dawn

Like maybe all I want is just not mine at all

Been thinking on the ugly things you told me

Been learning how to be alone, not lonely

My father said it's best to get right with it early

My mother begs and prays for God to hold me tightly

And show me not to fear

The distant future that's so near

Been praying in a couple years you won't be gone

It's all unclear

If the love I've always held so dear

Will follow me or disappear like stars at dawn

Like maybe all I want is just not mine at all

We enter and we leave this world alone

But we live and die for love, for love!

We enter and we leave this world alone

But we live and die for love, for love!
