Starlight

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Got my lines on my skyline
When are you coming down?
I'm sitting here on the sidelines
Wishing you'd come around

A word or two or three, be fine
Just wanna know what's on your mind
I wanna know what's on your mind
What's on your mind

Starlight, shine upon my halo
All night, I could be your angel
Falling deep into your stratosphere
Starlight, shine upon my halo
All night, I could be your angel
Falling deep into your stratosphere-phere
I could be your angel
Fall into my stratosphere

Got your head in my heavens
But I'm stuck on the ground
I'm seeing you crystal clearly
While you're caught in the clouds

A word or two or three, be fine
Just wanna know what's on your mind
I wanna know what's on your mind
What's on your mind

Starlight, shine upon my halo
All night, I could be your angel
Falling deep into your stratosphere
Starlight, shine upon my halo
All night, I could be your angel
Falling deep into your stratosphere-phere
I could be your angel
Fall into my stratosphere

Attacking only tower
You're telling me but
I won't let it speak
Just speak to me
And I already know
Let the light burn bright
We're flickering
And maybe we can shine
Go into the sky

Starlight, shine upon my halo
All night, I could be your angel
Falling deep into your stratosphere
Starlight, shine upon my halo
All night, I could be your angel
Falling deep into your stratosphere-phere




I could be your angel
Fall into my stratosphere

Overall Meaning

In "Starlight" by Loren North, the singer is waiting for someone to come down to her level. She has "lines on [her] skyline," indicating that she's looking up at the sky, waiting for the other person to come down from their high position. The singer is "on the sidelines," wanting the other person to approach her. She wants to know "what's on [their] mind" and is hoping for just "a word or two" from them.


The chorus uses imagery of stars and angels, creating a theme of celestial beings. The singer asks the starlight to "shine upon [her] halo," implying that she's an angel. The repetition of "falling deep into your stratosphere" suggests a desire to be with the other person in their world. The second verse further emphasizes this idea, with the singer stuck on the ground while the other person is "caught in the clouds." The singer again expresses a desire to know what's on the other person's mind.


The bridge contains the lyrics "Attacking only tower / You're telling me but / I won't let it speak / Just speak to me." This could be interpreted as the other person being focused on their own goals and ambitions (attacking the tower) but neglecting the singer. The singer wants the other person to communicate with her ("Just speak to me") and is willing to let them shine ("let the light burn bright") with the hopes of them being able to shine together.

I'm literally obsessed with this song, I usually play songs once and move on but this one has me replaying it a million times

@stevenblum7388

@RC-zi4vt

4 years later I’m still obsessed with this song

@Sayre777

This was my childhood you don’t even know. How I miss being okay.

@chetweller6278

How this girl doesn’t get regular air play on the radio, have a major record label and isn’t well known by now is beyond me. Every song she’s done is great.

@aquickfoo4256

This is very likely the most underrated song ever.

@lorennorth
