I am watching the dance of the stars
And I see your soul
Wondering...  

There is a star in the sky that was born for you
And a star that was born for me.
We have no say in how it burns
But it is our soul
Shining in the night sky.

You are the fire that warms your own place.
You are the fire that streams from one space.
Only you are given your face.

I am the luminescence that is only mine.
I am the luminescence that is not alone divine.
But I am here watching your fire shine.

And yet,
We live within the same sky
With our own ancient history;
Our stories that have
Endeavored to extinguish
Our soul.

But where do we find-
Amongst a thousand stars,
Amongst a million years of fiery past-
A flame that will always show its light
To just our own eyes?

I am watching the dance of the stars
And I see your soul's light
Illuminating...
