[Intro]

My star

My star

[Verse 1]

My sweet mother, do not weep

Though they dress you in mourning black

This faded, weary body of mine

No flame can ever crack

The swallows born of fire's embrace

No matter how far they roam

Shall never forget the sacred earth

That once they called their home

[Chorus]

Oh, my little starry-eyed one

Lean, let me kiss you

Upon your holy tears of light

Let my parched lips rest anew

Oh, my little starry-eyed one

Lean, let me hold you

Let these weary, forgotten wings

Find their last breath upon you

[Post-Chorus]

Ah

Ah, my star, my precious light

[Verse 2]

My sweet mother, do not weep

My life's a vessel, drifting free

Forever searching for its home

The wind, its sail at sea

[Chorus]

Oh, my little starry-eyed one

Lean, let me hold you

Let these weary, forgotten wings

Find their last breath upon you

[Post-Chorus]

Ah

Ah, my star, my precious light, oh

Ah

Ah, my star, my precious light, oh

[Outro]

My star
