Starless Heaven Lyrics

After all the years away
I don't feel that much older
Over the holiday it keeps me away

Standing on the sand
Staring at the sea
Waiting for a whale to come and swallow me
The day is gone now
Still not swimming

Right at this moment
Am I where I need to be
Will I ever be there
When everything I think I've seen
A dream impossible to dream
I'm seeing stars forever
In a starless heaven

Standing on the sand
Staring at the sea
Waiting for a whale to come and swallow me
All the things I know now
Still not sinking in

Right at this moment
Am I where I need to be
Will I ever be there
When everything I think I've seen
A dream impossible to dream
I'm seeing stars forever
In a starless heaven

I'm going to the sea to settle down
I should before I sink into the ground
I'm going to the sea to settle down
I should before I sink into the ground

Cause everything I think I've seen
A dream impossible to dream
I'm seeing stars forever
In a starless heaven

I've been knocked down
I've lost my ground
I'm take a long look overhead
I'm seeing stars forever
In a starless heaven

After all the years away
I don't feel that much older
Over the holiday it keeps me away

Standing on the sand
Staring at the sea
Waiting for a whale to come and swallow me
The day is gone now
Still not swimming

Right at this moment
Am I where I need to be
Will I ever be there
When everything I think I've seen
A dream impossible to dream
I'm seeing stars forever
In a starless heaven

Standing on the sand
Staring at the sea
Waiting for a whale to come and swallow me
All the things I know now
Still not sinking in

Right at this moment
Am I where I need to be
Will I ever be there
When everything I think I've seen
A dream impossible to dream
I'm seeing stars forever
In a starless heaven

I'm going to the sea to settle down
I should before I sink into the ground
I'm going to the sea to settle down
I should before I sink into the ground

Cause everything I think I've seen
A dream impossible to dream
I'm seeing stars forever
In a starless heaven

I've been knocked down
I've lost my ground
I'm take a long look overhead
I'm seeing stars forever
In a starless heaven

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
