lyrics

Look! A meteor shower!
High up in the heavens
Every star falling is someone lost to us
Giving a wave as they fly by
I feel my heart quicken
I am with them everyone
I am with you everyone
I am with you

Through the lonely living crowds
Moving at breakneck speed
The taxi tears across Manhattan
London A to Z
Grafton street in November
Potsdamer Platz where I caught a train
Each one speaks your name
The history of us echoes down
Each block and every lane

Look! A meteor shower!
Burning through the heavens
Each one a love I've lost
Blowing a kiss as they soar on
I feel my heart gladden
I am with them every one
They are with me everyone
I am with my one true one now

December in The Marais
She wraps the sheet around her
Slow motion sleepy limbs
The window blinds throw ladder light
Across her sun-kissed skin
The broken in me mended and whole
Our bodies move in perfect time
Upstairs to the 5th floor
I am healed despite my wounds

Look! A meteor shower
The Perseids, Delta Aquariids
Departed heroes and heroines one and all
The singers and speakers of the story
They stand right here before us
They are with us every one
They are with me every one
I feel their presence





Voices ring over the subway clamor
Call back across the veil
The angels move among us
Cassiel and Damiel
Give comfort to the despairing
Look up to where they descended
Your caress defies gravity
Transcends human depravity
War is over and love is everything

A meteor shower! The wonder of it all!
You keeper of the story, you namer of the names
Through beautiful cities and free nations
Assemble, testify, preserve
These songs are ours every one
The pulse of music sealed the bonds
The stories live forever on
The story is ours
