Terminal Star
You're a beautiful trace Across time and space You're a thing that once shone And you still shine bright In the darkest night Though you're already gone You have travelled so far My terminal star In your coat so red But I still don't know how I can watch a thing now When it's already dead When it's already dead Just to reach my eyes You traverse the skies For a hundred million years I behold your power In this waukrife hour Just before it disappears All the stories in stones And in beakers and bones All the salt in the sea Are eclipsed by the might SongtexteOf your fading light You're dying so beautifully So beautifully You're a beautiful trace Of time and space You're a thing that once shone And you till shine bright In the darkest night Though you're already gone Though you're already gone Aus Songtexte Mania
