Jolie Holland - Black Stars lyrics

I saw you tonight by the light Of the shining black stars that circle my heart I saw you come in, though it was dim I have been listening from the beginning When you arrived It was as if we had both died And gone somewhere else You and myself That otherworldly feeling Came over me stealing My mind was reeling Blood bleeding Red like my guitar Whoever you are Cold in the night I think you're right To whisper and listen Like flowers glisten In a quiet garden The moon is wizened and it is old As a toad in a Chinese story The fallen glory of my ego Is laid at the feet of all our purposes And my purpose is to keep on dreaming I am fishing for wishes that's where you come in Though it was dim when you arrived It was as if we had both died And gone somewhere else You and myself
