"Stars"

That was me
Lying on a blanket staring skyward
Tracing constellations with my finger
Knowing every story they were named for

That was me
Drifting off to dream so I could wander
Among the planets and the gods - among the monsters
King of all the cosmos and the backyard

But now I look up at the dark
And all I see are stars
And it just breaks my heart
All I see are stars

That was me
The mutineer pirate on the playground
Tamer of the tigers in the treehouse
I wouldn't even recognize me now

But that was me
Before I started answering the questions
And boarded up the windows to the kingdom
And shut it all away and called it wisdom

So when I look up at the dark
All I see are stars
And it just breaks my heart
All I see are stars

And I don't know, but I believe
That you were just like me

And you look up at the dark
And all you see are stars
All you see are stars
All you see are stars
All you see are stars
All you see are stars
And don't it break your heart?
All you see are stars
