Lyrics Sufjan Stevens

Sufjan Stevens

Star of Wonder

I call you

From the comet's cradle

I found you

Trembling by yourself

When the night falls

Lightly on your right-wing shoulder

Wonderful know-it-all

Slightly where the night gets colder

Oh, conscience,

Where will you carry me?

I found you

Star of terrifying effigies

When the night falls

I carry myself to the fortress

Of your glorious cost

Oh, I may seek your fortress

When the night falls

We see the star of wonder

Wonderful night falls

We see you

We see you

I see the stars coming down there

Coming down there to the yard

I see the stars coming down there

Coming down there to my heart
