  • Underneath the stars I'll meet you
    Underneath the stars I'll greet you
    There beneath the stars I'll leave you
    Before you go of your own free will
    Go gently
    Underneath the stars you met me
    Underneath the stars you left me
    I wonder if the stars regret me
    At least you'll go of your own free will
    Go gently
    Here beneath the stars I'm landing
    And here beneath the stars not ending
    Why on earth am I pretending?
    I'm here again, the stars befriending
    They come and go of their own free will
    Go gently
    Go gently
    Underneath the stars you met me
    And Underneath the stars you left me
    I wonder if the stars regret me
    I'm sure they'd like me if they only met me
    They come and go of their own free will
    Go gently
    Go gently
    Go gently

    This song reminds me of my son who I lost this year. We met under the stars, I lost him under the stars. May the angels and the starts gently guide my son to heaven. Till we meet again Kyle

    This reminds me of the earlier 2000's when I was still in college. Met my first girlfriend to this song, we were both 20 at the time. Tragedy struck though, when we were both about aged 22 my fiance was not feeling very well, she brushed it, she brushed it off though, not worrying about like she was like that, just bubbly and full of life, but all that changed she became so ill that in 2005 I took her to the hospital, she was diagnosed with breast and stomach cancer, she passed away in hospital at the age of 22 with me by her side Sunday 12th February 2006. On the day she died, I was sitting by her bedside, her last words to me in a faint whispering voice with all the tubes through her as she struggled to raise herself to speak to me were before she died with her last dying breath as I was clutching her hand were "I love you", then she flopped back onto her bed and died. I was in tears and this song was played at her funeral.

    Why is this song so sad? Because sooner or later each of us must leave here, and it won't always be freely or gently. This beautiful song will probably still be loved after everyone here now is gone, and the stars will be out there long after that. Thank you Kate. You are very wise.

      The very same thing happened to me, and I have no idea why. One Saturday morning, the song came on the radio, first time I’d heard it. Within a minute there rose a sudden, short-lived, tidal wave of tears, great heaving, snot-drenched sobs over the memory of every lost love. Sweet song, sweet singer. Thanks for the reminder of that moment. 🙂

      Underneath the stars you met me.
      In their light your charms beset me.
      I wondered if those stars would let me
      Find your love, and not forget me.
      They come and go of their own free will
      Come gently
      Underneath the stars love found us,
      A universe of light around us.
      By chance we met, could change confound us?
      Can love be strong when pains surround us?
      We'll share it all, and our free will
      Come gently.
      Here beneath those stars we're standing,
      And here we pledge our love unending,
      Bound for life, with no pretending.
      We're here in peace, the stars befriending.
      They come and join of their own free will.
      Come gently
      Underneath the stars I'll meet you.
      Underneath the stars I'll greet you.
      There beneath those stars I'll love you,
      And come what may, like stars above you,
      We'll find our way and let free will
      Come gently
      Come gently
      Come gently

      We had this song at our wedding in January whilst we were signing the register. I'm so glad we did. We both think she's great so it was personal to us and it's such a lovely song. If you like it, have it at your wedding! There are no rules and your friends and family will be watching you guys with a lovely song in the background not concentrating on the lyrics! :)

    Jennifer Saunders is a big fan of Kate Rusbys...she uses her music throughout each episode, and she even appeared in an episode :)
