dishonor the stars
If you wake and chance to look Above you There's one that I named to show how Much I love you Hanging up high Poets long have written and Have sung Of moonlight and some Distant satellite And when we're young we wish Upon them Other men may only dream To kiss you But it's not a thrill like this Put your lips a little closer to my Cheek then whisper, then speak So, tell me if you know How deep can this thing go? Honey will still desire the flowers And there will be a love like ours Until the sky dishonours the stars What in the world would all this Amount to? If I can't tell you how much I want you On such a night the sky might Dishonour the stars Disown and dishonour the stars Poets long have written and Have sung Of moonlight and some Distant satellite And when we're young we wish Upon them Other men may only dream To kiss you But it's not a thrill like this Put your lips a little closer to my Cheek then whisper, then speak So, tell me if you know How deep can this thing go? Honey will still desire the flowers And there will be a love like ours Until the sky dishonours the stars What in the world would all this Amount to? If I can't tell you how much I want you On such a night the sky might Dishonour the stars Disown and dishonour the starsv
