Cover art for When the Stars Go Blue lyrics by Ryan Adams

The stars going blue refers to the shift of the light of the stars. When the stars are moving away from us, the light appears red and the universe is expanding. When the stars go blue, the universe would be collapsing back in on itself. Thus when her universe collapses in on itself and her relationship is failing, he'll be there for her. Pretty clever stuff!
