paroles de chanson Bright Star - Anaïs Mitchell

Bright star
When I first laid eyes upon you
I was filled with such a longing
To be with you in the dark
Bright star
Since I could not fly beside you
I would chart my own course by you
And I'd sail it by your light

Bright star
I've sailed in all directions
I've followed your reflection
To the farthest foreign shore
Bright star, bright star
I have anchored in the harbors
I have brought my gifts to barter
For a drifter's bed and board bright star

I've drunk the wine of ages
In the company of strangers
We have sung in tongues of angels
And then stumbled on the pavemеnt
And I understood my place then
And my purposе in relation
To the young and ancient night

Bright star
I'm home now from my roaming
I'm alone now in the gloaming
With the ships out in the yard
Bright star
There's a thought upon me dawning
You've launched a thousand longings
And I don't know who you are

Bright star
You've never been my vessel
Or the wind my sails have wrestled
Or the lands to which I traveled
Or the friends with whom I reveled
There are lengths to which you'll never know I went
To be your lover
And beloved in your sight

Bright star
When I first laid eyes upon you
I was filled with such a longing
To be with you in the dark
Bright star
If I could've flown beside you
I would not have had the sight of you
To guide me through the world so wide
And bright
