How am I supposed to see the stars - Silje Nergaard

I won’t disown

Those things my heart has sown

The blame is mine alone

I made this fickle heart my own

But how am I supposed to see the stars

How am I supposed to see that far

I see the cost

Of all this heart has lost

And how those dice were tossed

In lives this fickle heart has crossed

But how am I supposed to see the stars

How am I supposed to see that far

How am I supposed to start

And change an ever changing heart

Light some corners of a mind

That isn’t there for me to find

How am I supposed to see

The stars you say are meant for me

How am I supposed to praise

Those stars with eyes I cannot raise

Maybe I’m supposed to say

I’m walking tall on feet of clay

Resting only when I check

The albatross around my neck

How am I supposed to see

The stars you say are meant for me

How am I to see

But how can I

Who lent my heart the lie

Now lift up heart and eye

And may the fickle heart see sky

And how am I supposed to see the stars

How am I supposed to see that far
