Lyrics

By the time you get this
I might be long gone
My letter travelled the space ways
From the wild beyond
A pinpoint in the night sky
You see me burn
Off in the corner of a cosmic puzzle
Of little or no concern
I am a distant star
Far from where you are
Pulling strings on this old guitar
A distant star
Blowing up on the surface
And burning underneath it
If I went supernova
If I really felt the heat
But I would rather be in the distance
Burning at my own speed
Than fit into a constellation
That doesn’t give a damn about me
I am a distant star
Far from where you are
Pulling strings on this old guitar
A distant star
And I’ll keep shining
It’s the only thing I know how to do
Off in a faraway orbit
Shining just for you
I am a distant star
Far from where you are
Pulling strings on this old guitar
A distant star
