Van Canto
"Starlight"

I feel a heat inside
the past begun to thaw.
My mind describes the picture
that I want to draw.

What I have waited for
it seems to be so near.
And every step closer
is damping the fear.

All I am lies right in front of me.
Where did I go wrong
that it took so many nights to be
where I belong?

Starlight
please enlighten me.
I feel so immortal.
Starlight
raised to let me
see what was, what is
and what will be.

This one goes out to the preachers of the light
that never broke the promise:
„You will get there, if you still care“.
This one goes out to the darkness of the night
planning my atlantis.
I did not drown. No, I got there!

All I am lies right in front of me.
Where did I go wrong
that it took so many nights to be
where I belong?
I'm back again.

All I am lies right in front of me.
I'm back where I belong.
And the truth it lies beyond
these gates of dawn.
