“You cut me out in little stars.
And place me in the sky.”
Kate Havnevik (1975) Norwegian singer-songwriter
Song lyrics
“Ah, not to be cut off,
not through the slightest partition
shut out from the law of the stars.
The inner -- what is it?
if not the intensified sky,
hurled through with birds and deep
with the winds of homecoming.”
