Words & Music - Stephen Stills
Forgive me if my fantasies might seem a little shopworn
I'm sure you've heard it all before I wonder what's the right form
Love songs written for you, it's been going down for years
But to sing what's in my heart seems more honest than the tears
I am curious, don't want to hurry us
I'm intrigued with us
Ain't this song a bust
I don't care, dark star
I met you several years ago,
The times they were so strange, but I had a feeling
You looked into my eyes just once,
An instant flashing by that we were stealing
Another time you felt so bad,
And I wasn't any help at all as I recall
We didn't quite know what to do so we left the wanting be
Still there for me and you
Dark star, I see you in the morning,
Dark star, a' sleeping next to me
Dark star, let the memory of the evening
Be the first thing that you think of
When you open up your smile and see me, dark star
It's easy to be with you
Even with the storms that rage beneath your search for peace
We must make some time together
Take the kids and find a world that's ours to keep
Now you've got me dreaming girl
It's been so long that I thought that I'd forgotten how
My heart is once again my soul
We touched, we did, you know we did, no more teasing now
Dark star, I see you in the morning,
Dark star, a' sleeping next to me
Dark star, let the memory of the evening
Be the first thing that you think of
When you open up your smile and see me, dark star
