Star Gazing

Standing here tonight. 
I’m tied to this,
emotionless,
looking at the sky. 

A million diamonds shine,
makes me wonder what is mine? 
It’s been a long, long time
since I saw with open eyes. 

Was clear to me back then. 
No, I really don’t know when,
I fell into the place, hit the race
and started running just to run. 

But now I’ve come to see
you and me 
through the eyes that I had then
so, I think the race for us 
is finally done. 

For we are not alone. 
No, we are not alone. 
Take that for what you will,
it is true in every tone. 

No, we are not alone. 
No, we are not alone.
So take my hand,
let’s leave this land…
and we’ll finally build our home.
