You there, pearly white
Can you see the stars in my eyes?
A nice reflection it may be
So it seems, to me
A kiss from heaven lightly breathed
Nightly unsheathed
You there, pearly white,
Can you hear the stars tonight?
How I wonder what
They might say to you
Oh how they wander but hardly they ever move
What do they whisper while hardly they ever move
What do they tell you?
Tell me what they tell you
What do they show you?
Show me what they show you
And if I know you
Like they likely know you
Could I die? Oh my dear.
Love, a lasting love
Like a dove that flies
Right over the years
Truth, precious truth
As in youth i'd like to fly
Up above
Lasting love
Lasting love enough to rise up through the evening sky tonight
How you wander right over the evening sky like a dove
Lasting love
Everlasting love like I never knew
Quite like you do
Precious truth
As in
You there, pearly white
Can you feel the stars tonight?
How I wonder if they are kind, are they kind to you?
How I wonder if maybe they sing this song for you
You there, pearly white
Can you sing a song tonight?
Just for me
Just for me, dear
Of a lasting
Ever, everlasting true love
