Starry Night

It was a starry night
when I chose your eyes
from all fixed stars to be the ones
to illuminate my night skies

It was a starry night, we
sat on the rooftop and I
didn´t want to touch you because then
I wouldn´t be able to let you go anymore

It was a starry night, the stars
were dancing through the galaxies and
wrote our names on the ink-black sky

It was a starry night when you could
hear the voice of the universe
and we recognized our own insignificance-
when we sat there in infinite power,
risen above the city lights

It was a starry night when I was afraid
that the next moment anyone would
make the march of time continue
paint the sky in another colour
break the silence and
catch the shooting stars
cause if something´s perfect, it will never last

It was a starry night, we watched the falling stars,
you were smiling when you forgot to think of a wish,
no problem, fate, right next to me is everything I would ever wish for

It was a starry night, and if you were completely silent,
you could hear the world´s breath

from far below.
