Starlight and further
Oh my brave deserter
If ever a miracle manifests itself
Somewhere on this side of rainbow
I'll meet you there again

For one brief moment in time
We were about to change our lives
But some strange slip of fate
Took you away into the starlight and further
And left me here with just my binoculars
Tomorrow may be uncertain
But I don't want to look behind the curtain
It's not my time just yet

People here pay no mind
They just growl for no reason
While I keep searching for a place
From where to gaze into the starlight and further
Across this town of sleeping hope
Oh my brave deserter
Without you it feels imperfect
