Morningstar, don't eat my heart
Tell me why you want this world to be all yours
In your cloud of light that no one dare climb
I'm asleep soundly in your palm
Oh, Morningstar, don't eat my heart
With your face painted red and your big, red horns
Riding on a thundercloud in the dark
Oh, Morningstar, don't eat my heart
I feel you close but I can't see where you are
Through the trees, shapes shift, glowing eyes in the mist
Candles flickering in the wind burn out with a wisp
And so long are the shadows when the moon keeps hanging on
And when the arrows cut through the night, I pray they'll miss
Oh, Morningstar, don't eat my heart
I can feel you close but I can't see where you are
They'll dance to the beat of drums
They'll sing till the deed is done
And I'll rest all through the summer into the fall
Will you remember me when I'm gone?
When I'm face down in the fields
Out where all the daises grow
Where the sun sweeps down the hills
Will you remember me when I'm gone?
In your cloud of light that no one dare climb
I'm sound asleep with you forevermore
Oh, Morningstar, don't eat my heart
Don't eat my heart
