Listen to Starlight by Richard Charles Stevens (Knowing Heart Suite)

Listen to No One Knows by Queens of The Stone Age

There was starlight in her eyes
A lullaby
As yet unsung
And it was my delight to come undone
.
We danced late into the night
And there remained until first light
To reignite a flame so striking
It became the most enticing
As it blazed the pale horizon
Into life
And unsurprisingly
Invited me to favour timeless flight
.
There was stardust in her stride
A lullaby
To my wide eyes
As it confided tales regaled
With not a tiny detail veiled
Of every mighty mountain scaled
Atop the giddy height of sail
My head felt dizzy to admire
One quite so fitting by my side
.
My heart was hardly vacant
Merely guarded neath my raiment
Her lullaby
As yet uncharmed
Of harmony’s arrangement
And it was my birthright to see it thrive in kind persuasion
.

There was starlight in her eyes
A lullaby
As yet unsung
And it was my delight to come undone
From the far side of my rear view
She had glided into clear view
And my heart grew to proclaim
She was the one
She was the one
.
There was starlight in her eyes
That touched the dust within her stride
Thus I entrusted every blush of me
To mastering her puppetry
Our strings were wound around each other
From each cycle found as lovers
As below
Twas so above us
Dawning in all shades and colours
.
Stardust in her stride
A lullaby
To my wide eyes
As it confided tales regaled
With not a tiny detail veiled
Of each untimely fate prevailed
Atop the giddy height of sail
My head felt dizzy to admire
One quite so fitting by my side
.
It was my most flourishing delight
To come undone
For my heart grew to advise
She was the one
.

My heart grew to advise
My heart grew to advise

She was the one

She was the one
(The one)
The one

In the starlight
In the starlight
Shines a star bright
(Shines a star bright)

She was the one
She was the one
She was the one

She was the one

My heart was hardly vacant
Merely guarded neath my raiment
Her lullaby
As yet uncharmed
Of harmony’s arrangement
And it was my birthright to see it thrive in kind persuasion

Sharon Louise
She was the one
One
One
