Canon Image Challenge #47 - Under The Milky Way

Brief:
Below is the lyric to the song "Under The Milky Way" by Aussie rock band "The Church". Have a read through and choose a word or phrase that appeals to you and make it the subject of your photo. For example, if you like the phrase "Fades with the light" then use that as your inspiration for an image. You can choose different words or phrases for each of your three images. Use the chosen word or phrase for your title and to avoid duplication of names (which may confuse the voting) add your name to the end. I've loaded three examples into Exhibition.

Background:
This song may be high in the category of songs you didn't know you knew. Recorded in 1988 by The Church, it was the song that almost made them famous. It's been used in the soundtrack to several films including Donnie Darko and most recently Friendship! Whenever I hear it I am struck by the evocative beauty of the simple lyric and it always seems to put me in a creative mood.

This topic popped into my head, but with the decreasing number of challenge entries I was tempted to ignore it and go with something really simple like pink or round. But then I remembered the first line of the song: "Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty" and realised it was the sparse number of entries in the last challenge that brought this song into my head! So I decided to stand by it.

Here's a link to the Video to see if it jogs your memory.

Lyric:
Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty
Sound of their breath fades with the light
I think about the loveless fascination
Under the Milky Way tonight

Lower the curtain down on Memphis
Lower the curtain down all right
I got no time for private consultation
Under the Milky Way tonight

Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find

And it's something quite peculiar
Something shimmering and white
Leads you here despite your destination
Under the Milky Way tonight

Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find

Under the Milky way tonight...
Under the Milky Way tonight...
