in some cases

the stars are you
burning ferociously
and how far away
doesnt matter
because i love you

jack and sandra
can try to explain it for me
and it works
for the moment
with pretty words and
syllables strung together
more than anything
coming out of these finger tips

but far more than the words
is how much i think about you
every second
every day
every time
i look at the sky
and the sky
in england
is exactly the same

no matter what anyone
would say
in some cases
the stars are you
and every time i look up
on nights we don't talk
they are here
and you are too
