Tristella

Maybe you are a billion light years away
Maybe you're gone, maybe you don't even exist anymore
But in the distance I see your blue glow
That is delayed in time
Shows a more beautiful past

The star that follows me looks a lot like you
It has sad little eyes, but it makes me so happy
The star that follows me I can't touch
In my arms it melts and reminds me that you're not
With me

At night we talk
And it stays here by my side
Until I'm asleep
And in the morning it's gone
And that's how it is sometimes
We talk sleeplessly
And we cry for what has ended

But it's not you
I know it's not you
It was just a memory
It was just your light

The star that follows me looks a lot like you
It has sad little eyes, but it makes me so happy
The star that follows me I can't touch
In my arms it melts and reminds me that you're not

I know you're out there flying, continuing with your life
And hopefully after so long you still remember mine
I don't know if you also have a star that follows you
That talk about that day when I swore I would love you
That I would give you all my life as if it were a gift
That your star would follow me until the end of my years
But that's how it was written, that's how it had to be
You would have to continue on your path
And I would have to love you forever

And it's not you
I know it's not you
It was just a memory
It was just your light

The star that follows me looks a lot like you
It has sad little eyes, but it makes me so happy
The star that follows me I can't touch
In my arms it melts and reminds me that you're not
With me
