lyrics

It's getting late, you finally make, it home,
I see your face, in outer space, alone.
You know, I know I'm not the only one,
To sing to you after the setting sun.

You seem to go, from high to low, so fast
And though you glow, it's not your own, you cast.
I stay awake until it's dark outside.
It's like you even push and pull the tide.

There's so many stars, and you've so many scars,
But something about you makes you best by far.
And all through the night, you climb to new heights,
Still holding my heart cause you're my favorite light.

Well do you know, that down below, I'm yours.
And long ago, well there were so many more.
That used you light to get them through 'til dawn.
Needed your presence long after you'd gone.

There's so many stars, and you've so many scars,
But something about you makes you best by far.
And all through the night, you climb to new heights,
Still holding my heart cause you're my favorite light.

Sometimes you feel so far away, and
Call it apogee.
But even then I'm still caught up, In your,
Your gravity.

There's so many stars, and you've so many scars,
But something about you makes you best by far.

There's so many stars, and you've so many scars,
But something about you makes you best by far.
And all through the night, you climb to new heights,
Still holding my heart cause you're my favorite light.
