Sagittarius Summer by Chris Taylor

COVER ART:

A view of the Milky Way supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* in polarized light.

INSPIRATION FOR THE SONG:

Sagittarius Summer:

Sagittarius A*, abbreviated as Sgr A* is the super massive black hole at the Galactic Center of the Milky Way viewed from Earth, it is located near the border of the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpius. As a Scorpio, I was thinking about this massive black hole in the center of our galaxy and relating it to the void in the center of our hearts, mine in particular.

Lyrics

SAGITTARIUS SUMMER IS UPON US ALL

MY GALACTIC CENTER, NOW A BIG BLACK HOLE

I WISH I COULD LET YOU IN, UNDER MY SKIN

I WISH I COULD LET YOU IN, HOW TO BEGIN?

BUT IT’S ALL I CAN DO TO MAKE THE FEELINGS SHOW

CHORUS

AM I A STORM? AM I A SONG?

LIGHT YEARS AWAY, FROM THE LIFE I KNOW

VERSE 2

I’M ALONE IN THE WORLD, YET, NOT ALONE

MY EVENT HORIZON HAS COME AND GONE

I WISH I COULD LET YOU IN, UNDER MY SKIN

I WISH I COULD LET YOU IN, HOW TO BEGIN?

BUT IT’S ALL I CAN DO TO MAKE THE FEELINGS SHOW

CHORUS

AM I A STORM? AM I A SONG?

LIGHT YEARS AWAY, FROM THE LIFE I KNOW

VERSE 1

SAGITTARIUS SUMMER IS UPON US ALL

MY GALACTIC CENTER, NOW A BIG BLACK HOLE

I WISH I COULD LET YOU IN, UNDER MY SKIN

I WISH I COULD LET YOU IN, UNDER MY SKIN

I WISH I COULD LET YOU IN, UNDER MY SKIN

I WISH I COULD LET YOU IN, UNDER MY SKIN

I WISH I COULD LET YOU IN, UNDER MY SKIN

I WISH I COULD LET YOU IN
