Your laughter filled the silence Like stars fill up the night So I kissed you underneath a heaven That looked and sounded so bright
When you looked at the stars Did you know, could you tell That the ending of our love Would not go very well? Did you know, could you tell?
Horoscopes each morning Across the breakfast table To navigate our days The best that we were able You use the stars, my darling Like philosophy or religion You use them because you think They give you better vision
When you looked at the stars Did you know, could you guess That the cadence of our love Would sound like this at its best? Did you know, could you guess, my love?
Now I turn my head to science 'Cause romance let me down I like the safety of rules and regulations Explanations to be found Light travels fast Light travels far By the time it reaches us There may not even be a star
Yes, I know, I know you love me Well, at least you say you do But love means something different To me than it does to you We don't see each other anymore All I see is this A kind of starsong, baby Because we don't even exist
When you looked at the stars Did you know, were you right? Did you find what you were looking for? Did they shed a little light? Listen, baby, the stars Are all silent tonight Oh, the stars are all silent tonight
