Today we made the sweetest promise
to look at the sky at night.
We searched for the brightest star
while living worlds apart.
The feeling was so wonderful
when I saw the brightest star.
You had said before it would be me
shining from afar.
As I stayed there under the stars
I whispered your name a thousand times,
hoping the soft wind would carry
my words to you across the miles.
I whispered that I love you
and really need you here.
I blew your way a million kisses
and my eyes began to tear.
But those tears that briefly fell
were of happiness and so much love.
Because it was beautiful to know
we were looking at the same star above.
