Angels we name Stars

They tumbled down from heaven's throne

Their wings of light now softly shown

A shimmer slips through night's vast dome

But no one knows they've lost their home

Oh they're falling falling without a sound

Through the night where no bounds are found

We watch in awe as they streak and spar

Calling them angels we name them stars

They burn with fire as they descend

Their ghostly trails seem without end

Eyes below see wishes to send

But they’re just hearts too broken to mend

Oh they're falling falling without a sound

Through the night where no bounds are found

We watch in awe as they streak and spar

Calling them angels we name them stars

They're not flares they’re sorrows untold

Once divine now shadows cold

Still mankind dreams on tales of old

Turning their pain to hopes of gold

Oh they're falling falling without a sound

Through the night where no bounds are found

We watch in awe as they streak and spar

Calling them angels we name them stars
