The sky is so dark tonight Black velvet wraps itself 'round the heavens Draping itself among skeletons of trees Offering shelter in its shadows Willing to hide all imperfections A veil of secrecy An easy way out Yet in the distance you shine A single star reaching out Piercing through the night Shedding light onto every flaw Yet calling out to me still A voice of reassurance A hopeful way out |
