Did that shooting star up in the sky
Put the little twinkle in your eye?
It can't be mine, no no
Did the parts of you that look like me
Live before recorded history?
Why would I call you mine?
You're your own
You're your own

I long to see you run to me
Watching you smile as we draw near
Rock you in the sunlight
Wrap you up in stillness, and kiss
Away your worry until one of us gets hungry
But I'm here

Paying to be apart
Paying to be apart
Running between my art and you

If you were here I'd stop my workin'
Name the trees and every bird
That joins our stream of sweet unfettered singing
Reach out to hold everything
Without owning anything
Watching moments live and die
With wonder as the one thing driving us, but I'm here

Paying to be apart
Paying to be apart
Running between my art

Paying to be apart
Paying to be apart
Running between my art and you

Once there was a supernova
But little parts drew back together
Slowly making suns and moons like this one
When we look up to the sky
That's the stuff You and I
The cradle that each one of us is born from

Here
Paying to be apart
Paying to be apart
Running between my art and you
Paying to be apart
Paying to be apart
Running between my art and you

Did that shooting star up in the sky
Put the little twinkle in your eye?
It can't be mine, no no
So how could I call you mine?
You're your own
You're your own

Willa, my will is moving through you
We loved you long before I knew you
Willa, my will is moving through you
We loved you long before I knew you"
