Lyrics

You're reaching for a star in the night just wait until the rain makes it comes down the city's gonna shine in the night a vision of a devotion you're reaching for a star in the sky just wait until the rain makes it falls down the city's gonna shine in the night a vision of a devotion there is another sound for words where nothing's said and joy is heard there is another word for sound you hear it when you don't listen you're reaching for a star in the night ... you're waiting for the miracle man, male, female, undescript and undistinctive, age undefined, hides in city corners
