Stars Lyrics
Tangerines are hanging heavy, glowing marigolden hues
Teasing a half-pale moon
And I feel a pull to the blue-velvet dark and stars.
Pink Magnolia, blushing and coy
Savors the sun while she shines
You’ve got yours and I’ve got mine
Together we glide through the blue-velvet dark and stars
All it takes is a little faith, and a lot of heart
Back and forth we ply these oars
They move in time and get entwined
Green with joy then gray with sorrow
Ripened fruit that falls tomorrow
Filling us with brilliance
Branches are bare with a pulse underneath
Flowering slowly inside
Your hands are warm and my body is wide
To hold all the promise of blue-velvet dark and stars
All it takes is a little faith and a lot of heart
Sweetheart
Teasing a half-pale moon
And I feel a pull to the blue-velvet dark and stars.
Savors the sun while she shines
You’ve got yours and I’ve got mine
Together we glide through the blue-velvet dark and stars
They move in time and get entwined
Green with joy then gray with sorrow
Ripened fruit that falls tomorrow
Filling us with brilliance
Flowering slowly inside
Your hands are warm and my body is wide
To hold all the promise of blue-velvet dark and stars
Sweetheart

This is a very peaceful picture of the nature of marriage -- A boat going down a river with two oars, husband and wife, working together. The bare branches, yet with a pulse underneath, symbolize future hope for life and happiness.
I think this song is a really romantic view of two lovers trying for a baby.
With lines like "pull to the blue velvet" and the whole part about "Back and forth we ply these oars, They move in time and get entwined" decribing them making love and then the part about ripend fruit could be the pregnancy and having a child.
gorgeous. just the way it makes you feel. "ripened fruit that falls tomorrow filling us with brilliance." tantalizing =)
i looove this song!
i agree with the first 3 people the way this song makes me feel is just wonderful! i could listen 4 hours!
Woah, FFAMikey- Never thought of it that way before, but it makes perfect sense, especially the verse towards the end: "Branches are bare with a pulse underneath Flowering slowly inside Your hands are warm and my body is wide To hold all the promise of blue-velvet dark and stars" The pulse being the baby, of course, and the wide body being...well, I think you get the picture ;) Either way, gorgeous song.
This is like the perfect wedding song.
Yes, I totally understand the pregnancy thing. Beautiful song, nonetheless.
well im not quite sure about this pregnancy thing because the video to this song clearly tells the story of two girls who have lost their mother...

@tomke That video is fan made. He got permission from The Weepies to use the song to make that video as a tribute to his son, Joshua, who was stillborn at 8 months. The girls in the video are the daughters of the maker of the video and his wife. The girls didn't lose their mother, that grave is the grave of Joshu, their brother. Incredibly touching and beautiful video.
