lyrics

The day you left
the sunset was incredible
Golden horizon underneath a turquoise sky
And those little pink clouds
Were floating in heaven and
it was so beautiful I didn't even want to cry
So I walked on a little bit further
and I saw a bright star
Or maybe a satellite
And I thought
I don't ever have to worry
about losing you because
No matter where you are
You'll always be shining like that star

The night you left
We all went out dancing
Trying to prove to ourselves that life would still go on
And if we had more fun
than we thought we would
It was in those moments
we forgot you were gone
And three times
on that cold December evening
When we walked out
We saw shooting stars
I don't know if it's an omen
But three's a lucky number
And no matter where you are
We can both dance under the stars

Early next morning
the moon was a fat and dusty pearl
Swimming through the sunrise clouds
sinking into dreams
and I thought
If the whole sky's celebrating
all day and all night
maybe your going
isn't as bad as it seems
And the real reason
that you had to go away
may become clear to me
a little bit later
I don't know when we will meet again
and I know it's not the same
But no matter where you are
I'll always love you from afar

No matter where you are
I'll always love you my bright star
I'll always love you my bright star
