Once, as my heart remembers,
All the stars were fallen embers.
Once, when night seemed forever
I was with you.
Once, in the care of morning
In the air was all belonging.
Once, when that day was dawning
I was with you.
How far we are from morning,
How far we are
And the stars shining through the darkness,
Falling in the air.
Once, as the night was leaving
Into us our dreams were weaving.
Once, all dreams were worth keeping.
I was with you.
Once, when our hearts were singing,
I was with you.
All the stars were fallen embers.
Once, when night seemed forever
I was with you.
Once, in the care of morning
In the air was all belonging.
Once, when that day was dawning
I was with you.
How far we are from morning,
How far we are
And the stars shining through the darkness,
Falling in the air.
Once, as the night was leaving
Into us our dreams were weaving.
Once, all dreams were worth keeping.
I was with you.
Once, when our hearts were singing,
I was with you.

um....i love this song with a burning passion. she deeply loved someone when she was with them, meaning he may have died or left. now it is only darkness because he was her dawn, her everything
It's about Lucifer, the bright and Morning Star, fairest son of God, the dream keeper and highest archangel in Heaven. The fallen angel who manipulatively took a third of the angels in Heaven with him when he was cast out in a bolt of lightning for his pride, his vanity.<br /> <br /> "How far we all have fallen."<br /> <br /> It's a personna of Lucifer's ode to his former Master, the only One he truly ever loved -- Yahweh.<br /> <br /> Read the lyrics very closely, then read Isaiah 14:12-23 to gain a closer understanding of the lyrics' true meaning.
