Heavenly

Starshy

Album: This Is Heavenly [1995]

Sailing out across the quiet sea 

Saying that your ship is much too small for me 

Sailing to where you may be happy 

 

Off to where you're out of reach 

Left your lifebelt on the beach 

Off to where you'll be so calm 

Far from harm 

 

Starshy, shy, shy, shy 

I turned to talk to you last night 

But your star's shining so bright 

Starshy, shy, shy, shy 

It's hard to sleep when you shine down 

It's hard to speak without sound 

 

Sailing back across the stormy sea 

Saying that you've never been so lonely 

Sailing back to where you may be happy 

 

Lost your compass, lost your map 

Lost your way, there's no way back 

Giant wave on Orkney Sound 

Lost, not found 

 

Angels taking you from me 

Taking you high, as a star and friend
