The Stars Are So Far (How Does It Feel)

When I saw you, you looked so surprised
And the oceans flowed through your blue-grey eyes
And I stood and gazed through hot summer days
So tell me, how do you feel?

Well, I dreamt of you my whole life through
And I didn't even shut my eyes
Because what I see is pure heaven to me
So tell me, is it for real?

We could make love and live as one
And burn't our fingers on the sun
But I have seen what love denies
I've drunk the teardrops from her eyes

Now I walked the backstreets of my mind
And sit through the memories over time
But I have seen how truth denies
I've drunk the teardrops from her eyes

As I enter your summer time of my life
And look back the years of joy and strife
And wonder where you are today
I still can't find the words to say
