If you'll be my star, I'll be your sky
You can hide underneath me and come out at night
When I turn jet black and you show off your light

I live to let you shine
I live to let you shine

You can sky rocket away from me
And never come back if you find another galaxy
Far from here, with more room to fly
Just leave me your stardust to remember you by

If you'll be my boat, I'll be your sea
Depth of pure blue to proke curiosity
Ebbing and flowing, and pushed by a breeze

I live to make you free
I live to make you free

And you can set sail to the west if you want to
Pass the horizon 'til I can't even see you
Far from here, where the beaches are wide
Just leave me your wake to remember you by

If you'll be my star, I'll be your sky
You can hide underneath me and come out at night
When I turn jet black and you show off your light

I live to let you shine
I live to let you shine

You can sky rocket away from me
And never come back if you find another galaxy
Far from here, with more room to fly
Just leave me your stardust to remember you by

Stardust to remember you by

taken from:
[ Boats And Birds Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com/ ]

This song makes me think of my babies and how they'll one day "fly far far away, to another galaxy" and when I get to the part about leaving the "stardust to remember you by" I am swimming in my own tears, feeling the bittersweetness that watching your children grow up tends to bring. I am still all teary eyed.

I love it

this is the first song i ever learned to play on the guitar [x

and i thought it was a creepy song... haha..

this song has been stuck in my head ALL day. i sing it everywhere i go. it is really calming. i remember all the words, last i heard this song, was around a year ago. it's amazing how you never forget music.

doesnt coco rosie sing this? and isnt it called something else

wow! x)

Cool huh...

if you'll be my star, i'll be your sky
you can hide underneath me&come out at night
when i turn jet black&show off your light
i live to let you shine, i live to let you shine

you can skyrocket away from me
&never come back if you find another galaxy
far from here with more room to fly
just leave me your stardust to remember you by.

if you'll be my boat, i'll be your sea
the depth of pure blue just to probe curiousity
ebbing&flowing&pushed by a breeze
i live to make you free, i live to make you free.

&you can set sail to the west if you want to
past the horizon til i can't even see you
far from here, where the beaches are wide
just leave me your wake to remember you by.

if you'll be my star, i'll be your sky
you can hide underneath me&come out at night
when i turn jet black&show off your light
i live to let you shine, i live to let you shine.

you can skyrocket away from me,
&never come back if you find another galaxy
far from here, where there's more room to fly
just leave me your stardust to remember you by
stardust to remember you by.

if you'll be my star, i'll be your sky
you can hide underneath me&come out at night
when i turn jet black&show off your light
i live to let you shine, i live to let you shine

you can skyrocket away from me
&never come back if you find another galaxy
far from here with more room to fly
just leave me your stardust to remember you by.

if you'll be my boat, i'll be your sea
the depth of pure blue just to probe curiousity
ebbing&flowing&pushed by a breeze
i live to make you free, i live to make you free.

&you can set sail to the west if you want to
past the horizon til i can't even see you
far from here, where the beaches are wide
just leave me your wake to remember you by.

if you'll be my star, i'll be your sky
you can hide underneath me&come out at night
when i turn jet black&show off your light
i live to let you shine, i live to let you shine.

you can skyrocket away from me,
&never come back if you find another galaxy
far from here, where there's more room to fly
just leave me your stardust to remember you by
stardust to remember you by.
