Under a Beautiful Starry Sky

Lyric

【Under a Beautiful Starry Sky】

That night I slipped outside, unable to sleep,
Though leaving home was a secret to keep
But sleepless hearts don’t follow the rules,
And I was drawn by midnight’s hues
Wondering what colors the dark might breathe

The first time I witnessed the world at night,
Not pitch-black shadows, but softened light
I looked above and the sky was strewn
With scattered stars like a jeweled bloom
Not blinding bright, just gently aglow
And the faint blurred breeze drifting slow
Brushed against my skin with a teasing flow

So this kind of world existed all along…
I smiled in wonder, deeply drawn
The road I crossed every single day
Felt like another realm far away
Alone for once, this universe was mine
I even skipped beneath the starlight shine
But I could never tell my friends that side


After that, little by little at night
I started wandering beneath the sky’s light
Whether it was clear or covered in gray,
Whether the rain poured anyway
I walked regardless of storm or gleam
Enjoying each face the heavens would dream
Nighttime wandering became supreme

And after tasting skies of every kind,
I still found one that captured my mind
The sparkling heavens on a crystal-clear night
Were the most beautiful, pure in sight
They pulled me in without a sound
Till every thought came drifting down
Emptying worries I tightly bound

The stars above that quietly stay near,
Their beauty leaves me lost when they appear
A tiny spark of envy blooms inside,
Yet they forgive and hold me every time
There’s such a peaceful warmth they softly give
That makes it impossible not to forgive


Now I’m older, walking nights feels normal somehow
And when exhaustion weighs me down
I choose to raise my eyes again
Because the stars are always there
No matter how deep the hurt may tear
Close enough it feels my hands could reach
Beyond them waits the endless deep
A boundless galaxy stretching free


Compared to that enormous sky above,
My little worries hardly seem enough
Wrapped in that tender shining light, I heal
As if embraced by something real
And thinking back to those skipping feet
Maybe that joy was only natural to meet


I wanted to keep on walking farther still,
Beyond the clustered galaxies’ silver hills
Chasing the light beyond the night
