Dreams of my dreams.
You come to me
Singing " The Stars Of Our Stars".
The stars of our stars
Came up the first day.
The moon did set.
The sun comes up.
And all the stars did disappear.
Stars of our stars.
Dreams of my dreams.
You come to me
Dancing to "The Stars Of Our Stars".
The stars of our stars
Came up the second day.
The moon did set.
The sun comes up.
And all the stars did disappear.
Times at night in the spill of light
You catch a glimpse.
You make a start with an eager heart,
But it always slips.
And then everything shifts.
Stars of our stars.
Dreams of my dreams.
You come to me
Trailing "The Stars Of Our Stars".
The stars of our stars
Will come up the third day.
The moon will set.
The sun comes up.
And all the stars will disappear.
Cowboy Junkies are an alternative country and folk rock band formed in Toronto, Ontario, Canada in 1985 by Alan Anton (bassist), Michael Timmins (songwriter, guitarist), Peter Timmins (drummer) and Margo Timmins (vocalist). The three Timminses are siblings, and Anton worked with Michael Timmins during their first couple of bands. John Timmins was a member of the band but left the group before the recording of their debut studio album. The band line-up has never changed since, although they use several guest musicians on many of their studio albums, including multi-instrumentalist Jeff Bird who has performed on every album except the first.
Cowboy Junkies' 1986 debut studio album, produced by Canadian producer Peter Moore, was the blues-inspired Whites Off Earth Now!!, recorded in the family garage using a single ambisonic microphone.
The band gained wide recognition with their second studio album, The Trinity Session (1988), recorded in 1987 at Toronto's Church of the Holy Trinity. Their sound, again with Peter Moore using the ambisonic microphone, and their mix of blues, country, folk, rock and jazz earned them both critical attention and a strong fan base. The Los Angeles Times named the recording one of the 10 best albums of 1988.
Cowboy Junkies have gone on to record 16 studio albums and five live albums, with tour dates booked into 2024.
