When I was young, I prayed for lightning
my mother said it would come and find me.
I found myself without a prayer,
I lost my love and no one cared.
Yeah, I looked with my face up to the sky,
but I saw nothing there,
I stared while my eyes filled up with tears,
I heard one sing from above,
then the signal split in two,
the sound created stars like me and you.
Before there was love, there was silence,
I heard one sing
and it healed my heart.
