Sleeping At Last - Venus

 

The night sky once ruled my imagination.
Now I turn the dials with careful calculation.
After a while, I thought I?d never find you.
I convinced myself that I would never find you,
When suddenly I saw you.

At first I thought you were a constellation.
I made a map of your stars, then I had a revelation:
You?re as beautiful as endless,
You?re the universe I?m helpless in.
An astronomer at my best
When I throw away the measurements.

Like a telescope,
I will pull you so close
?Til no space lies in between.

And suddenly I see you.
Suddenly I see you.

I was a billion little pieces
?Til you pulled me into focus.
Astronomy in reverse,
It was me who was discovered.

(I thought I?d never find you,
When suddenly I saw you.)

Like a telescope,
I will pull you so close,
?Til no space lies in between.

Then suddenly I see you.
