Above there are no stars tonight just northern skies
Reflected light upon your face
Some people think stars rule our lives,
Some people they think otherwise
They can be replaced.

Where did you go on a big black night?
Did you take the coast road back through your life?
See the sand, the moon, the stars that shine the light
And say, well, they’ll do all right for me?

We shroud our lives in mysteries,
Shooting stars and storming seas, if we have any sense.
Storm clouds roll, they’re free to break
And we’re free to make the same mistakes again and again.

Where shall we go on that big, black night?
Shall we take the coast road back through our lives?
See the sand, the moon, the stars that shine the light
And say, well they’ll do all right without me?

Above there are no stars tonight, just northern skies
Reflected light and fields of snow.
Some people think stars rule our lives,
Some people they think otherwise
What does anybody know? 

Where shall I go on that big, black night?
Shall I take the coast road back through my life?
See the sand, the moon, the stars that shine the light
And say, well, they’ll do all right for me?

Where shall I go on that big, black night?
Shall I take the coast road back through my life?
See the sand, the moon, the stars that shine the light
And say, well, they’ll do all right for me?

See the stars and constellations,
Sit beneath their congregation.
