this is my favorite sufjan stevens song off of his album
Songs for Christmas here are the lyrics:
I call you from the comet's cradle
I found you trembling by yourself
When the night falls,
Lightly on your right winged shoulder
Wonderful know-it-all
Slightly when the night gets colder
Oh conscience where will you carry me?
I found you, star of terrifying effigies
When the night falls,
I carry myself to the fortress
Of your glorious cost,
Oh how I may seek your fortress
When the night falls
We see the star of wonder
Wonderful night falls,
We see you, we see you there
I see the stars coming down there,
coming down there to the yard
I see the stars coming down there,
coming down there to my heart
(Those days, days, days run away
like horses over the hills...)
