16 Stars

16 stars in a silvery sky cast their crystal eyes on me
Across the night Saturn spins on a dime and I miss your company

Even as I rise above, analyse the love that comes to meet me
Tell me are you feeling high, does it signify we are friends eternally

You could almost pretend to see I always defend you
Keep your hand held for a high-five you are all up in my disk drive
It's a family tradition not to ask for permission
Digging around in the archive just like a wasp in a beehive

Semaphore on the factory floor in a compound on the moon
The signs align in a beautiful line like cartoon honeymoon

Did you ever rise above all the wiser stuff you tried to teach me?
Put your hand inside my glove, digitise your love the ones and ohs of me
Staying at the Overlook in a secret nook where Jack can't reach me
Wishing we were full of stars on a trip to mats aboard a bumble bee
Even as I rise above, supersize the love that comes to meet me
See you in the sky, my dove, like a Powerpuff we are friends eternally

You could almost pretend to see I always defend you
Keep your hand held in a peace sign until we pass through the faultline
It's a family tradition not to ask for permission
Fooling around in the backstage just like a rock in the stone age

16 stars in a silvery sky cast their crystal eyes on me
Across the night Saturn spins on a dime and I miss your dismiss your
Miss your company

Forgive them all, sweet cannonball, no need to
Destroy them all, no curtain call, just send me to
Your sweet room, the shape of a life
The sonic boom, of us flying overhead cuts the gloom like a knife
