Blanket of Stars

Before the stars
When time was young
And not a light shone from deep in the dark
Two souls combined
Love came to being
And set the first star ablaze with that spark

With every love
A new one shines
And as we turn around the sun they spring to life
We have the moon
We have our time
We'll lift our eyes to that glimmer of light

We'll sleep under the stars
We now know what they are
And somewhere out there
Is ours

We'll sleep under the stars
We now know what they are
And somewhere out there
Is ours

We'll watch galaxies collide
Tectonic plates slide beneath
The crashing waves on the sea
We stand transfixed by that Grand Design
Every star shines above
Each ignited by love's Gravity

And when the sun
No longer shines
And the clocks of the cosmos unwind
I'll have your hand
And you'll have mine
We'll lay our heads in that stillness of time

We'll dream under a blanket of stars
Oceans of time wash by
We'll dream among their light
We'll sleep under a blanket of stars
We now know what they are
And somewhere out there
Is ours

And when you gaze
Into the night
A million flares through the lens of your scope
Remember Love brought them to life
Each one a story of timeless hope
