Lyrics
[instrumental intro]
[hook] (The stars in heaven... we testify...the beauty of his treacherous eye... In the embrace of the darkest sea...
Where ecstasy and agony agree...)
[Verse 1]
When shadows stretch in midnight’s hush,
A handsome stranger stirs the dusk,
With eyes like night and lips that gleam,
He weaves his way into your dreams.
He stalks the night, so softly, so bold,
Selecting hearts, both young and old,
With whispers sweet, and breath so light,
He claims them for his endless night.
His smile is one men can't deny,
They follow him without a sigh,
And as he leads them through the night,
They fade into the sky’s soft light.
[instrumental hook]
(The stars in heaven... we testify...the beauty of his treacherous eye... In the embrace of the darkest sea...
Where ecstasy and agony agree...)
[Verse 2]
Beneath the moon’s envious gaze,
He moves with grace, in lover’s chase,
His touch, a spark that steals their breath,
A dance of life, a kiss of death.
He whispers secrets, sweet and low,
Their hearts surrender, soft and slow,
And in his arms, they drift away,
Into the stars where he can play.
[instrumental hook]
(The stars in heaven... we testify...the beauty of his treacherous eye... In the embrace of the darkest sea...
Where ecstasy and agony agree...)
[Bridge]
He’s the weaver of constellations,
The architect of desolations,
With every star he steals away,
A piece of earthly joy decays.
Their eyes, like diamonds, gleam so stark,
Yet hold within a silent spark.
[Verse 3]
The village mourns their lost sons’ plight,
Their futures turned to endless night,
Yet every tear that falls below,
Above becomes a gentle glow.
The sky is scattered with their grace,
A haunting smile in open space,
But fear not for the stars that gleam,
For in their hearts, they live their dream.
[instrumental hook]
(The stars in heaven... we testify...the beauty of his treacherous eye...)
(In the embrace of the cosmic sea...
Where ecstasy and agony agree...)
(The stars in heaven... we testify...the beauty of his treacherous eye... In the embrace of the darkest sea...
Where ecstasy and agony agree...)
[Outro]
So when you gaze upon the night,
And stars ignite with soft delight,
Remember they’re not cold and still,
But echoes of a lover’s thrill.
The thief who stole them with a kiss,
Has made them shine in endless bliss,
For in the dark, their light will burn,
A love that never will return.
[instrumental outro]
[hook] (The stars in heaven... we testify...the beauty of his treacherous eye... In the embrace of the darkest sea...
Where ecstasy and agony agree...)
