When you found him he was lying in the road You held him in your arms so he was safe And you talked for hours, soft and quiet You watched the light change as if you came from it
And you both laughed at the dumb things we repeat That buy us time or keep us with the other sheep We marry our fear but what makes the night not so deep Is someone to watch over us while we sleep
You found him lying on the road You traveled miles but never got too far He lost his heart when you were bringing out the stars When you were bringing out the stars
And you said Isn't the night beautiful Feel the weightlessness At the heart of things It made him laugh ‘Cause it made him remember How easy it is to love
In your arms They were everything They fill the sky Like Jimi's sad that guitar And he lost his heart When you were bringing out the stars
Then in the morning He walked you down He knew he had to let you go And all day he wore a smile ‘Cause he saw the joy that's waiting for his soul
