Anaïs Mitchell – Bright Star Lyrics

Artist: Anaïs Mitchell
Song: Bright Star

Bright star
When I first laid eyes upon you
I was filled with such a longing
To be with you in the dark

Bright star
Since I could not fly beside you
I would chart my own course by you
And I’d sail it by your light

Bright star
I have sailed in all directionsI
Have followed your reflection
To the farthest foreign shore

Bright star bright star
I have anchored in the harbors
I have brought my gifts to barter
For a drifter’s bed and board

Bright star
I have drunk the wine of ages
In the company of strangers
We havesung in tongues of angels

And then stumbled on the pavemеnt
And I understood my place then
And my purposе in relation
To the young and ancient night

Bright star
I am home now from my roaming
I’m alone now in the gloaming
With the ships out in the yard

Bright star bright star
There’s a thought upon me dawning
You have launched a thousand longings
And I don’t know who you are

Bright star
You have never been my vessel
Or the wind my sails have wrestled
Or the lands to which I traveled

Or the friends with whom I reveled
There are lengths to which you’ll never
Know I went to be your lover
And beloved in your sight

Bright star
When I first laid eyes upon you
I was filled with such a longing
To be with you in the dark

Bright star
If I could have flown beside you
I would not have had the sight of you
To guide me through the world so wide

And bright
