Oh starry sky
You enchant me
I have wished upon your shimmering lights
Time and time again
Repeating a childhood rhyme
Sending messages in invisible bottles
Occasionally landing on a passing satellite
Accidental wishes carry themselves to far away lands
Never as far as the light years
That bring this vision to our earthly realm
I believe in magic and fate
Even as the two collide
The ingredients of dream states
I believe in tears that cleanse my soul
Allowing my heart to face the day
As the fires rage
And the pandemic fails to fade
As humanity tries to destroy itself
Your light shines for a billion years or more
If all the wishes spilled upon the earth
An immense understanding, compassion and wonder
Would unfold into all the souls who found solace in your vision
Oh starry sky
I am under your spell
You enchant me
I have wished upon your shimmering lights
Time and time again
Repeating a childhood rhyme
Sending messages in invisible bottles
Occasionally landing on a passing satellite
Accidental wishes carry themselves to far away lands
Never as far as the light years
That bring this vision to our earthly realm
I believe in magic and fate
Even as the two collide
The ingredients of dream states
I believe in tears that cleanse my soul
Allowing my heart to face the day
As the fires rage
And the pandemic fails to fade
As humanity tries to destroy itself
Your light shines for a billion years or more
If all the wishes spilled upon the earth
An immense understanding, compassion and wonder
Would unfold into all the souls who found solace in your vision
Oh starry sky
I am under your spell
