Lyrics: Gert Wijnalda
Album: After The Fire
I’ve been through black holes in my mind
Only to find that you’re in love with me
Now I see the drunken nights we’ve had
When you declared you’d stay with me
But we’re different
So different
And I wonder if you’ve ever seen the stars
I’ve been through black times in my life
They’ve made me change my ways and grow
Oh, I believe you understand me well
But it never came across to you at all
That we’re different
So different
And I just can’t figure it out
Have you ever seen the stars
Did you ever learn to look without a reason
Making up a reason of your own
Have you really seen them all
Have you ever seen one fall
Waiting ‘till another one is shown
Since I was young I thought ‘bout all of my life
And about the things to be said
I often said we’re gonna be made again
And you just nod and say you agree
Oh, we’re different
So different
And I just can’t figure it out
Chorus
I want things to be different
Believe me honey
But I’m not gonna change who you and I are
So, we’re never gonna see
Never ever gonna see
No, we’re never gonna see
Never ever gonna see
Beyond the stars
Have you ever seen the stars
Did you ever learn to look without a reason
Making up a reason of your own
Have you really seen them all
Have you ever seen one fall
Anywhere, anytime at all
When I look over your shoulder
When we’re in some kind of last embrace
High in the sky I get a glimpse
Of another lonely star
