It is night over the salt lake
Galactic clouds move majestically
A rain of stars falls from heaven
On the stillness of the salt lake
And is reflected in depths bellow
And a moon in perfect circle
White and bright runs fast
And plays hide and seek
Amongst the clouds
What I miss tonight and every night
Is this beauty
The galactic the cosmic intimacy
Where earth and heavens meet
I miss the falling stars
The playful moon
I miss all that and more
I miss the rising and the setting sun
I miss the phases of the moon
I miss the ever-changing shapes of clouds
Moving fast in the vastness of the skies
I miss every single star and more
The salt lake has all that
And needs nothing more
It became like a mirror
To reflect the heaven above
Look how it looks different tonight
An infinite dome above
An infinite dome bellow
The heavens seam double
In its infinity now
