Lyrics
Hey now
Expression of attention or greeting
Are you awake now?
Inquiring about the listener's state of wakefulness
Sit beside me and watch the stars
Invitation to sit together and observe the stars
That glow above us every night
Reference to the stars above, a celestial scene
They clear the sky as they shine bright
Emphasizing the stars' ability to clear the sky and shine brightly
And begin the night
Noting the beginning of the night
Watch the sundown
Encouraging the observation of the sundown
Pouring the light out
Describing the light pouring out as the sun sets
From every cloud
Highlighting the dispersal of light from every cloud
Watch the clouds clear
Prompting to watch as clouds clear, creating a path
And make a way for you to shine
Connecting the clearing clouds with making way for someone to shine
With the brightest stars on the clearest sky
Emphasizing the person shining with the brightest stars on a clear sky
When the day ends
Transitioning to the end of the day
And blue sky disappears
Describing the disappearance of the blue sky
Stars show up and make a path
Noting the appearance of stars, creating a path to follow
For you to follow
Encouraging a farewell as the night approaches
Goodnight, goodbye
Expressing goodnight and goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye
Repeating the sentiment of bidding farewell
Watch the sundown
Reiteration of observing the sundown
Pouring the light out
Repeating the description of light pouring out during sundown
From every cloud
Reiteration of the dispersal of light from every cloud
Watch the clouds clear
Repeating the encouragement to watch clouds clear and make a way
And make a way for you to shine
Reiterating the connection between clearing clouds and shining brightly
With the brightest stars on the clearest sky
Re-emphasizing the person shining with the brightest stars on a clear sky
Goodnight, goodbye
Repeating the expression of bidding goodnight and goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye
Reiterating the sentiment of saying goodnight and goodbye
