Tonight, hold your curtain open 
I did not know where you are 
Nor how to reach your distant star 
Please, leave your light on and drapes ajar 

Tonight, I am going to swim across the Milky Way 
I do not know if the voyage is too far  
Or whether the ocean of stars  
Will be too turbulent for me 

Tonight, my heavy heart is full of dreams 
I did not purchase a return ticket 
Nor am I wearing a life jacket 

I do not know where you are 
Nor how to reach your distant star 
However, whether I sink or swim 
Tonight, hold your curtain open 
And wait for me
