lyrics

in a sea of unsung songs
some poets fall in love with every one
and dream of kissing god
they give the moon new names
and save special stars to give to friends
but the real magic's in their eyes
for the gold
a liquid state they came from
and will return to they're told
their pretty faces will not age
as they grow old
and their home
is a planet made of the dust of stars of old
so you see the light it will not fade
as they cross over
much of life they must reject
to crown their own heroes
in their own myths
with the leaves they wake up in
to see one is quite rare
you can blink your eyes
and they're not there
for they don't grace everywhere
