The Farthest Lights - Freedy Johnston

作曲：Freedy Johnston

At the window by yourself

I'm outside with everyone else

Hold yourself against the chill

And look at me with no expression

In the eyes I know so well

Is a question and a spell

An astronomerall my life

I've never seen a light so pale

The night is clear

When the stars appear

I recite their names

The farthest lights

Only now arrive

Wonder how they've changed

Everybody says goodbye

Driving off into the night

I look up when the moon comes out

Then shut the gate and go inside

More distant every day

I will ask but you won't say

Do I watch the sky too much

Familiar and so far away

The stars appeared

But they're always there

Up above the day

The farthest lights

Take us back in time

Wonder how they've changed

The stars appeared

But they're always there

Up above the day

The farthest lights

Only now arrive

Wonder how they've changed
