Your star will shine again one day
Through deep blue velvet skies
Shine for all the world to see
The universe in your eyes
When the storm outside is raging
And the dogs they howl your name
Lay down and sleep , I'll kiss you
You're star will shine again
Nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah
Hush my darling, don't you cry
I'll stay by your side until morning
All through the night I'll watch the skies
And your distant sun will shine
Like the gun that's trained
Right between your daddy's eyes
The subject is talking to his daughter just before he is going to kill himself. Pretty obvious
