lyrics

Stargazer, tree hugger
Unquenchable earth lover
Teach me how to speak with the oaks
And I'll take you to meet the moon

Tree hugger, stargazer
Seven league boot trailblazer
I can't help but think our paths
Diverged far too soon

And when the winds howl in the Cumbrian hills
Do you remember how I said
I'm here to drag you from your native lands
To the world inside my head?

Did you get lost my love
Following a star?
Wandering westwards
Wondering who you truly are
Well I'll be here on this mountaintop
Until your path leads back to you
Because my heart's a ranging campfire
And its warm enough for two
Oh my heart's a raging campfire
And its warm enough for two

Gemini sun, Aries rising
I'm sorry all your gods are dying
I'm sorry that the walls around your heart
Are built of iron and stone
Gemini rising, Aries sun
What bitter threads the Norns have spun
Don't tell me what you think I need
What I need is not to be alone

And when the rains fall in the Manchester streets
Do you remember how we tried
To find Jupiter behind the clouds
As he sailed through our different skies?

Did you get lost my love
Following a star?
Wandering westwards
Wondering who you truly are
Well I'll be here on this mountaintop
Until your path leads back to you
Because my heart's a ranging campfire
And its warm enough for two
Oh my heart's a raging campfire
And its warm enough for two

Through the tree roots I called to you
To tell me where you are
And find answers to my questions
About the riddles in our stars
Whenever you see Ursa Major will you think of me?
Just like I'll always hear your heartbeat
In every ancient tree

Stargazer, tree hugger
Unquenchable earth lover
Teach me how to speak with the oaks
And I'll take you to meet the moon

Did you get lost my love
Following a star?
Wandering westwards
Wondering who you truly are
Well I'll be here on this mountaintop
Until your path leads back to you
Because my heart's a ranging campfire
And its warm enough for two
Oh my heart's a raging campfire
And its warm enough for two
