Black Star

Now the wind will tell a story
Neither one of us would mind hearing about
Will it stop and say it's sorry
When it leaves blowing South?
Dear old paths lay before me
On the corners of our lovely hometown
To a kid the streets would all seem
Just as big as life around
Toys are spread over the bed
The family gently get themselves and pass the time
As for us no words are said
There's so much out there to find
Hold on, no one said we've gotta choose
About everything under the stars
So long, we'll go, what do we have to lose?
Who of us is gonna go and leave it all behind?
Who of us is gonna rise and fly the darkest night?
Every now and then, on grey days
When the sun don't seem to show up anymore
I hear that blowing wind that says
The things I've swept under the floorboard
And in its mild freedom, it prays
Whispering everything we would have done before
All the choices you and I'd make
Just getting out through different doors
Would you be the one picking songs on your guitar
Thinking 'bout how tragic life can be?
Would I be the one with the bones like a black star
Wondering if tomorrow I'll be here?
Hold on, no one said we've gotta choose
About everything under the stars
So long, we'll go, there's nothing left to lose
One of us is gonna go and leave it all behind
One of us is gonna rise and fly as dark as night
