San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus - Prelude 1 / The Life Cycle of a Star Lyrics

Lyrics Prelude 1 / The Life Cycle of a Star - San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus



I remember the night
How I remember my birth
Stars
Thousands looking down
While I, only, looking up in wonder
How on earth did I get here?
Did the heavens change my place?
Or was it me who made more room for wonder?
Look!
I wish I could be a star again
No, I wish I could be amongst them
Ha-ha-ha-ho-ha-ha
There you are, and there you are, and there you are, and there you are
Oh-ho, my family
Okay, listen
We have a whole world to light
I was there, in the palm of a young girl's hand
In the eyes of old dreamers
In the notes of a beautiful song
And still, still they looked down
There are too many heads looking down
Is it in prayers?
A poem, a heart in my ears
Ma?
Dad?
Nanna?
A whisper, "whoosh"
Wait, you again?
Did we do it?
Did we light the world?
