Starlight
Ryan Proudfoot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel like there's a hole in my heart
A deep yearning
Sometimes I'm feeling wounded and scarred
I'm still searching (for starlight)

These days, you know, they turn into months
And months to years
Sometimes I feel like just giving up
I'm so full of fear

But I'm still here

Waiting for starlight to dance [?] into moonlight
Whenever the time's right, I will meet you
Under the starlight we'll stare at the night sky
Waiting for the right time, I will meet you
Waiting for starlight
Under the starlight

Your ways Lord, I don't understand just what to do
My days, You know You hold in Your hand
So see me through
I trust in You

Waiting for starlight to turn [?] into moonlight
Whenever the time's right, I will meet you
Under the starlight we'll stare at the night sky
Waiting for right time, I will meet You
Waiting for starlight
Under the starlight
I'm still waiting for starlight
Under the starlight

I'm ready for You to show me the star
No matter how long, she's never too far
I'm ready for you
Waiting for you

I'm ready for You to show me the star
No matter long, she's never too far
I'm ready for you
I'm waiting...

For starlight to dance [?] into moonlight
Whenever the time's right, I will meet you
Under the starlight, we'll stare at the night sky
Waiting for the right time, I will meet you
Waiting for starlight
Under the starlihgt
I'm still waiting for starlight




Under the starlight
Waiting for starlight
