05 - Stars We Carry

[Verse 1] We've been walking through the dark Long before we found each other Every scar a map that led us To the arms of one another I was searching for a light That my hands could never hold Until I found the stars we carry In the stories we were told [Pre-Chorus] And even when we're miles apart I feel you in the dark [Chorus] These are the stars we carry Written in our skin Every love that shaped us Is the light that brought us in We are the stars we carry Burning through the years I'll follow you through darkness Till the dawn of us appears [Verse 2] Generations of devotion Flowed before us like a river Every prayer from those before us Helped our trembling hands deliver [Chorus] These are the stars we carry Written in our skin Every love that shaped us Is the light that brought us in [Bridge - whispered] I would cross a thousand lifetimes I would brave a thousand storms Just to find you in the chaos Just to bring you safely home [Final Chorus — full orchestral] These are the stars we carry Written in our skin Every love that shaped us Is the light that brought us in We are the stars we carry Burning bright and true All roads in all directions They were always leading to you
