Black Stars
Jolie Holland

I saw you tonight by the light
Of the shining black stars that circle my heart
I saw you come in, though it was dim
I have been listening from the beginning
When you arrived, it was as if we had both died
And gone somewhere else, you and myself
That otherworldly feeling came over me
Stealing, my mind was reeling
Blood bleeding red like my guitar
Whoever you are cold in the night
I think you're right to whisper and listen
Like flowers glisten in a quiet garden
The moon is wizened and it is old
As a toad in a Chinese story
The fallen glory of my ego
Is laid at the feet of all our purposes
And my purpose is to keep on dreaming
I am fishing for wishes that's where you come in
Though it was dim when you arrived
It was as if we had both died
And gone somewhere else, you and myself
