Send me a little bit of starlight.

              Send me some starlight
               If you at all miss me
          I don't care for pearls of advice
              Or your false sympathy

              You just left me too soon
            Have you gone off to sea?
                Just throw to me
              A little bit of starlight
              To send love to me
  
                 Should you in
           A cruel darkness slumber
         With your dreams plagued
          By sea ghouls and sirens
           Or some obscure shade

              I'll send you my love
          With prayers and silence
         I'll send a little bit of starlight
           To give you some aid

        I showed you no outward love
           So you left me too soon
         Where can you now be?
             If you ever cared
              Even just slightly
         Send me some starlight
         And I'll be joyful quietly
