Lyrics
All the stars came down to see her, as she glided through the night/And all the creatures gathered 'round her, they were attracted to the light/She was the flower of all creation, in a dress that matched her eyes/And her hair poured down like silver, we were blinded by the sight.
She walks in beauty, and the stars fall around her face/Fools that fall before here grace/Hearts gone cold from breaking/She walks in beauty, all the time it took to set me straight/ Save me, it's way too late but you know, she walks in beauty.
Then we were driving down the hiway, going ninety miles an hour/Ans I saw your hand on the stereo, and you asked me for a light/ Then i dreamed a dream we were sailing, high above the town/All our hopes came untethered, no way to bring them down.
(Chorus)
So she found some wings and she flew away/ Bound to see her again some day/Bite my tongue there are no words to say/Like I was never in love with you anyway.
(Chorus)
