Stars in My Eyes

The longing to touch the galaxy

I always regretted being born in this age
Not able to touch the stars
So close
But just out reach
Tempted each night by the night sky

I watch
Watch the galaxy drift by
I hold my hand up
Longing to touch it

Do we go there when we die?
Do we touch the stars?

Take me
O beautiful death
To dance along the Ort cloud
To sail across the pillars of creation
Take my hand
Lead me to the beauty of the galaxy

Take me
O beautiful death
Make me a star
To shine brightly in the night sky

Take me
O beautiful death
I am ready
