Constellation Lyrics
I see a spark appear
It flickers in the shadow
Without the sunlight
The stars become our heroes
When it seems I've lost my way
I look to the sky
Discover my own
When you feel lightyears away
I'll follow your light
To lead me home
You are my constellation
My champion in the sky
You are my constellation
So shine on me tonight
I hear a voice appear
It echoes in the silence
Under the moonlight
The song becomes our savior
When it seems I've lost my way
I look to the sky, discover my own
When you feel lightyears away
I'll follow your light to lead me home
You are my constellation
My champion in the sky
You are my constellation
So shine on me tonight
Shine on me tonight x2
Tonight x8
You are my constellation
My champion in the sky
You are my constellation
So shine on me tonight
When it seems I've lost my way
I look to the sky
Discover my own
When you feel lightyears away
I'll follow your light
To lead me home
