Star In The Black Sky Shining - John Stewart

There was a woman

I saw on the street

I swear she was wearing

The moon on her feet

She said, «Do you know me?»

And I said, «I don’t know»

She told me to listen

And then I could go

And there was a boy

Who I found on the road

I said, «Are you lost

With nowhere to go?»

And he said, «No I’m not

I believe that you are»

And he told me to sit

On the hood of the car

He said, «I am the course

That the river is winding

And I am the horse

That the angel is riding»

«And I am the source

Of the love you are finding

Do you know who I am?

It is blinding

I am the star in the black sky shining»

There was a dog

Who had followed me home

He was not young

But not fully grown

And he said, ‽Do you know me?

We spoke on the phone

I was a king

And the world is my throneâ€

He said, †I am the flame

In the heat of the fire

And I am to blame

For the tongue of the liar"

«And I am the same

As the birds on the wire

Do you know who I am?

It is blinding

I am the star in the black sky shiningâ€

And there was a thief

Who was tied to a pole

At his feet was a list

Of the things that he stole

And I said, ‽I am only

Playing a roleâ€

And he asked if I dared

Look deep in his soul

He said, †I am the heart

Of the warrior child

And I am the moment

That the beast becomes mild"

«And I am the part

Of the soul that is wild

Do you know who I am?

It is blinding

I am the star in the black sky shining», oh

«And I come from the light, it is blinding

For I am the star in the black sky shining», oh
