Silent Stars- Danh Backup

Night skies

The light from the stars I looked up at in the night sky

Old thoughts and wishes have passed through time without fading

Someone's scream is reflected in your glittering pupil.. the wind carries thoughts

The moon carries wishes, and today we're living as much as we possibly can

Our thoughts will someday be in someone else's chest

Continue to shine like that star

Once, twice, the sound of a bell reverberates in our hearts wide and deep

A star drop like in a story, and in the midst of it building a thin line

The time moves in respect to the ages, so too do the stars silently flow along

Close your eyes, and if you clear your ears , then goodbye

The heavens are like a giant black and white picture with a fluttering scarf and white breath

We're running fast to higher ground, just to get a little closer

Setting up the heavy telescope

The lens is covered in star dust

Time begets time and a romance spans the ages

A light set free, without dying away, it is firmly now passing through time

Until it reaches someone, this glorious light is on the other side with you Creating a story

A rising baby's first cry, a small light, a large light

Passing through time and meeting

Everything that shines will become one and produce a story

Point by point linking the stars like a constellation, if for someone

We too could paint a beautiful picture, that'd be nice

Look up, there, the diamonds of winter

The loose Milky Way.. soon your courage will return

There is one sky that extends out everywhere, yes

Beyond the sea a new born breath and a life worn out

The stars are shining, the tripod of the goddesses

Continuing on a long way, repeating the seasons over

For one moment is fine, for just a little is fine, engrave your thoughts

Just without end, passing through time, shining

The story continues on in your heart

That day you will sometime take the night train

No matter where you are today
Look up at the shining night sky..
