Dark Star
Milkman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

'Cause baby I'm a dark star, dark star
'Cause baby I'm a dark star, dark star

I have looked a long time to find you
I drifted through the universe just to lay beside you
Anywhere you want me to take you, I'll go
But there's things about me that you just don't know
'Cause baby I'm a dark star, dark star
'Cause baby I'm a dark star, dark star
'Cause baby I'm a dark star, dark star
'Cause baby I'm a dark star, dark star

'Cause baby I'm a
'Cause baby I'm a





Dark star

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Milkman & Jaymes Young's song Dark Star convey the idea of darkness and mystery. The singer describes himself as a "dark star," someone who has looked a long time to find the person that he is singing to. He has traveled through the universe just to be near her, and he is willing to do anything to keep her by his side. However, he also admits that there are things about himself that she doesn't know, making him all the more enigmatic and alluring.


The repeated mantra of "dark star" reinforces the idea of being shrouded in darkness, but there is also an underlying feeling of longing and vulnerability in the tone of the song. The singer seems to be revealing a part of himself that he doesn't show to anyone else, and he wants the person he is addressing to understand this about him. The lyrics are haunting and impactful, leaving a sense of mystique and beauty after the song ends.

This is just so awesomely different from the original, I love it when artists take an epic, Chilled song, and turn it into an epic House song. Especially when they put it in a different key and have the lyrics harmonize with the notes. Thank you Proximity, for making my day a lot better!
