the stars glistened that night
glimmered when you called me beautiful
pulsed when you smiled at me
disappeared when you broke our gaze
so the lake reflected only the streetlights
and couldn’t pick up the stars
they fell with every minute that passed
every minute lost in the night
every minute less i would spend with you
every minute you weren’t holding me
and the stars never shined so bright
and the sky never hung so heavy
than they did the night you sang to me
