MY STAR
There was a star, a very bright star.
AS YOU DANCED IN THE LIGHT WITH JOY, QUESTION: "HOW MUCH LONGER"
How much longer will I think of him every hour
It lived high in the Heavens.
It was the first star in the evening,
It was the last star in the morning.
Then came a terrible storm
And when it cleared,
My star had disappeared.
Looking up into the heavens
I heard a voice that said,
"Your star is still there,
It doesn't shine bright,
But it twinkles in the night.
Dad, look inside your heart,
I'm still here".
LOVE LIFTED YOU.
AS YOU BRUSHED AGAINST THIS WORLD SO GENTLY,
YOU LIFTED US.
How much longer will I cry each day
How much longer 'til a sunrise hurts a little less than the preceding sunset
How much longer before the hole in my heart starts to mend
How much longer will my lips quiver each time I try to speak
How much longer will I continue to say WHY
ANSWER: "HOW MUCH LONGER IS FOREVER"
