Faraway Star
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Star light, star bright
First star I see tonight
[CHORUS]
Faraway, faraway
Faraway star
How did you ever
Get up where you are
I can get dizzy
Just looking above
You are as far
As my faraway love
Faraway love, faraway love
Who can be happy
With faraway love
Wish that I may
Wish that I might
Grant me the wish
That I'm wishing tonight
[Repeat CHORUS]
Once must he seem
Distant from me
Even when we are
As close as can be
Powerful star
Wonderfully wise
Let me be seen
By his faraway eyes
When I am near
When I am near
Couldn't he be more
Aware that I'm here
We're holding hands
Inches apart
Show me the way
To his faraway heart
[Repeat CHORUS]
Faraway, faraway
Faraway star
How did you ever
Get up where you are
