Taken by the Stars

[Verse] In the night light fades Silent streets where shadows play Town clerk's boy nowhere found Stars above no sound [Verse 2] Parents cry lost in dread Empty room and empty bed Eyes search skies up so high Wonder if he's heard goodbye [Chorus] Taken taken by the stars Far away to Mars Gone where dreams are seen Hope he’s safe in the unseen [Verse 3] Aliens in silver light Hovering ships took flight Left our town lost confused In a dream world so bemused [Chorus] Taken taken by the stars Far away to Mars Gone where dreams are seen Hope he's safe in the unseen [Bridge] In the night we hold our breath Waiting for a sign or text Memories of fleeting grace Wish he'd come back to this place
