Here I sit
Here I watch
Naming stars as they go by

That one’s blue
That one’s red
And they listen to me cry

Let me know
Let me show
That I can rise once more

They don’t care
They don’t share
In the part of me that tore

So here I sit
So here I watch
Waiting for the desperate plea

Cause I know
Cause they know
That I’ll wait eternally

So I wait
So I cry
Sitting here and listening

To my song
To my hope
While the stars are glistening

Why, oh why can’t I just be
Oh why can’t I just see
Despite how hard I try
All I can do is cry

Never again shall I be free
Don’t use pity, run ‘way from me

Here I sat
Here I watched
Named the stars as they went by

One was blue
One was red
And they listened to me cry

And they knowed
And they showed
That I’ll never rise once more

Didn’t care
Didn’t share
And more of my heart tore

So there I sat
So there I watched
Waited for the desperate plea

Cause I knew
Cause they knew
That I waited eternally

So I waited
So I cried
Sat there to yet listen

To my song
To my hope
But they refused to glisten

Why, oh why can’t I just be
Oh why can’t I just see
Despite how hard I try
All I can do is cry

Never again shall I be free
Don’t use pity, run ‘way from me

Here I stay
Here I die
‘Membering stars when they went by

Now they’re dark
As is my hope
No one listens to me cry

I don’t know
How to show
How weak I am without you

You didn’t care
I don’t share
In the joy with which you slew

So here I lie
So here I fade
As I repeat the desperate plea

But I know
But you know
That nev’r ‘gain shall I see

So I groan
So I moan
Dying here not listening

To your song
To your hope
While the traitor’s glistening

Why, oh why couldn’t I be
Oh why couldn’t I see
Despite how hard I tried
All I did was cried

Now I can see too clearly
The problem was you, and was not me

Here I sit
Here I watch
Naming stars as they go by

That one’s yellow
That one’s white
And I listen to them cry

Let them know
Let them show
That they can rise once more

I do care
I do share
In the part of them that tore

So here I sit
So here I watch
Answering the desperate plea

Cause I know
Cause they know
That I’ll help eternally

So I don’t wait
So I don’t cry
Sitting here and listening

To their song
To their hope
While my love is glistening

Now, oh now I, yes!,  can be
Oh now I can truly see
Freedom me did try
But no longer will I cry

Forever and ever am I free
I use pity, so run to me

Here I sit
Here I watch
Naming you as you go by

You are yellow
You are white
And I listen to you cry

Let you know
Let you show
That you can rise once more

I do care
I do share
In the part of you that tore

So here I sit
So here I watch
Listening to your desperate plea

Cause I know
Cause you know
That I’ll help eternally

So I don’t wait
So I don’t cry
Sitting here and listening

To your song
To your hope
While your tears are glistening

Now, oh now I, yes!,  can be
Oh now I can truly see
Freedom me did try
But no longer will I cry

Forever and ever am I free
I use pity, so run to me

Here you stay
Here you die
‘Membering me when I went by

Now I’m dark
As is your hope
Yet I listen to you cry

You don’t know
How to show
How weak without me are you

You didn’t care
I don’t share
In the joy with which you slew

So here you lie
So here you fade
As you repeat the desperate plea

But I know
But you know
That nev’r ‘gain shall you see

So you groan
So you moan
Dying here but listening

To my song
To your hope
While my love is glistening

Now, oh now I, yes!,  we be
Oh now we truly see
Freedom us did try
But no longer will we cry

Forever and ever are we free
I use pity, so run to me
