We Are Made of Stardust

Drinking tea under a candlelight

Sitting through the ending credits

Catching snowflakes on our faces

Dreaming of love that conquers it all. 


'Cause we are made of stardust

[my singing} Yeah, we are . . .

[the gospel choir] Yeah, we are . . .


Watching cartoons just for fun

Going on morning walks in the forest

Dancing while cooking our dinner

Praying for many quiet Sundays. 


'Cause we are made of stardust

[my singing] Yeah, we are . . .

[the gospel choir] Yeah, we are . . .


Things couldn't get any less simple

It seems I wanted you, I wanted us forever. 

Our love would shine through the darkness

No hurt could touch us there anymore.


'Cause we are made of stardust...

Stardust . . . 

We are made of stardust...

Yeah, yeah, of . . . stardust . . . 


I lost myself when I fell in love with you

Memories that once made me smile 

In the dark nights and in the cold rain

Are now the cause of my deep-cut pain.


'Cause we are made of stardust...

Stardust . . .

We are made of stardust...

Yeah, yeah, of . . . stardust . . .

A/N: So... a few years ago I had this idea for a song called Stardust(it helps that one of my favourite books is Stardust by Neil Gaiman) but only got to a few words, not full verses. Today I listened to a song by John Legend with the same title, which came out of me. it's not perfect, it's far from it, but I have a melody for it and maybe I'll try it out someday. Until then, let's pretend it is a little poem, a love story even, like most of them that I post. 

Have a good weekend!

With love,

M.
