Stars

Written to: Letter from Yokosuka by Nujabes (R.I.P.) chord strikes in the middle of the night, lift me to stars falling cuz no matter how close, i'm still far from calling constellations from hibernation, i'm impatient so i hasten to my destination but you cant rush perfection as they say and i learned that from my pop's lessons back in the day he said "mayday was an excuse for you to drop; but in the hay day, we all played to reach the top" i can't stop, and won't with an audience behind me like the Wise exclaim, "among common men you'll find me" so if you want your wish, quit looking to stars plant your feet, your dream is where you are if you want your wish, quit looking to stars plant your feet, your dream is where you are teachers said reach for the zenith, but not seeing what's in front of me is an image i couldn't sleep with i guess i'd just miss it i wanna capture the breath of existence no matter the distance to see dreams cascade blue among the streams through crystal clear currents that lead you to me and a reflection in the pool says, "just be" and an untamed landscape says, "trust me" and we scan in awe, saying "it must be" and we search as one, saying "above me." why do i try to fight the spirit in me high lights like stars live atop this city why do i try to fight the feelings in me high lights like stars live atop this city and a reflection in the pool says, "just be" and an untamed landscape says, "trust me" and we scan in awe, saying "it must be" and we search as one, saying "i love thee."
