lyrics

I'm catching water in the pottery
I'm leaving daughter in a bad dream

how would you feel if I called your name
for hundreds and thousands of years
and when you finally heard and came
you found I had long since disappeared?
Well that's what the stars do every night
calling on and on across the abyss.
And they are all burning lovers
yearning to swoon and to kiss.

Then when they die they leave little babies behind
because that's just the beginning, not the end of life
and they will remind us how brightly their mothers shined.
