Lyrics for Sirius

Life has been a little crazy lately, wouldn't you say so? It's been hard to stay awake and harder still to sleep When dreamin's out the window Oh, you're fadin' into static Driftin' out much more than you've been tunin' in But somethin' out there's callin' you Hums with every syllable you sing Darkness folds around you, holds you Daylight comes 'round just to scold you Hasn't anybody told you lately? That Sirius is changin' colors for you A million miles away, and still he shines Oh, I know it feels like you're alone out there tonight Stars still glow, though they can't know we're lookin' for their light So don't disappear, you've no idea Just how much you brighten someone's sky Saw you flyin' high last night, your eyes were wider than the moon (Eyes wider than the moon) Oh, you burn up in the atmosphere when Monday brings you crashin' down too soon (See you're comin' down again) Oh, you say it's lookin' up, that Lady Luck is goin' to turn your world around (I've heard it all before) Then give yourself to guys who spend their lives with their eyes firmly on the ground A satellite, you wonder why you've drifted out of view All this time you've passed life by, now it's caught up with you Please don't let the night consume you, take the dark and let it fuel you Just remember someone out there's lookin' up to you, oh Sirius is changin' colors for you A million miles away, and still he shines Oh, I know it feels like you're alone out there tonight Stars still glow, though they can't know we're lookin' to their light So don't disappear, you've no idea Just how much you brighten someone's sky Someone's sky
