I wrote this song about the loss of Bap Kennedy.
lyrics
Light from the Stars
There’s a half of a moon
shining down on the road.
And I’m tired and hungry,
and so far from home.
I’m watching the taillights,
as they disappear.
Rolling on to the bottom
of this heartbreaking year.
And they ask us to say a few words,
when we’re speechless.
Sometimes the light from the stars
is too late to reach us.
And it’s a hard way to find out
if you’ve got what it takes -
slipping over the white line,
with your foot on the brakes.
But it’s the same destination,
in the same straight line.
But you were watching the heavens,
and I was reading the signs.
It’s like Hank Williams wasted his breath
when he tried to teach us –
sometimes the light from the stars
is too late to reach us.
Sometimes the light from the stars
is too late to reach us.
