[00:45.17]Our names are written on the stars on heaven's tree
[00:51.85]Yes, nine by nine they die, just like you and me
[00:59.99]These peerless eyes look down, giving us our choices
[01:08.39]Each one calls out, a universe of voices
[02:01.03]These are the ancient fathers, the laws that bind us all
[02:08.26]White jewels of mystery, mirrors for our souls
[02:16.20]They spoke of life and death, love and history
[02:24.07]Today the stars are for fools and vanity
[02:47.48]And there's Orion and there's the Zodiac
[02:54.71]If you look close, they're needles in a stack
[03:01.97]And you saw, in your telescope on earth
[03:10.10]Copernicus, the order of the worlds
[03:18.95]Evening caress
[03:22.34]Always yearning
[03:25.75]I must confess
[03:29.17]The stars aren't burning
[03:31.37]Copernicus
[05:35.34]The sky is full of shining crosses for our sins
[05:42.27]Each one a monument for what ends and what begins
[05:49.47]Small emerald satellites, orbiting so fast
[05:57.28]Will they be gone tomorrow, just like painted glass?
[06:19.23]If I had wishes, I would shout to you and scream
[06:26.33]But now I realize, you're like young dying streams
[06:33.38]I'm in the real world, with people, crises and scars
[06:41.26]Copernicus, I don't care about your stars
[06:49.92]Evening caress
[06:53.17]Always yearning
[06:56.32]I must confess
[06:59.76]The stars aren't burning
[07:02.40]Copernicus
