Something great is out there, even if it's out of sight
I hear a harvest moon is coming out tonight
And even after sunset, in my bed I'll lie

I hear tonight the stars will be there in the sky

A globe of living souls, just beyond my reach

Perhaps a constellation will be out giving a speech
And when the old man listens, there's something that he hears
The planets on their courses play the music of the spheres


And lying in the grass with you, I see the Milky Way
And all the stars in heaven have been waiting for that day

And angels might not give a damn about the ones they see
But anyone who's met me knows it means the world to me


And telescopes aren't good enough to see you as you are
I want to be there with you, to be your morning star
But then you let my hand go, and no matter how I try

I'm nothing but a stargazer looking into your night sky

Walking down the hall with you, you're like a glowing sun

'Cause when you smile, you cast your golden rays on everyone
But not a single beam of light will penetrate my heart
Cause gravity will pull on us, and keep us still apart


And if you've really known me, all the days of all the years
Then you know how you figure in my hopes and in my fears

And don't you understand why it's so hard to not love you
When worlds and worlds of choices are tearing me in two


And flying through the stars with you, I see the Milky Way
And angels in the heavens have been waiting for that day
And people might not give a damn about the ones they see

But anyone who knows me knows you mean the world to me

And eyes are never good enough to see you as you are

I want to be there with you, to wish upon your star
But now you've let my hand go, and no matter how I try
I'm nothing but a stargazer looking into your night sky
