Star Of Wonder Lyrics

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-winged shoulder
Wonderful know-it-all
Slightly when 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, how I may seek your fortress

When the night falls
We see the star of wonder
Wonderful night falls
We see you
We see you there

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
[Repeat x 10]

(Days, days, days run away like horses over the hills)
