Can you tell me how it's so

some things I want to know

Like how do birds fly

And loving lips learn to lie

As I'm walking through this land

I Just don't understand

you faded with a parting kiss

Disappeared like a morning mist

Do stars see our hopes and fears

Can they wipe away our tears

Can clouds see even more?

Can they feel how we fall?

I think, even clouds must cry

If even stars can fall

Can they hear my call

If even clouds must cry

Do there tears run dry

Stars sleep in silence as they soar

Do they hear all we swore?

They've watched our kisses and goodbyes

Love and rage and alibis

Do they even see our fears

Or care about our tears?

They shine above the rights and wrongs

They watch us stumble, sing our song

Words once danced like candlelight

But flickered out in silent flight

I speak them now into the air

Hoping the stars might care
