Star Searching

Baby I’ve never

Been closer to the stars

But I think that I’d rather

Have my head on your heart

And we’d lie beneath them

And they’d look so far

But we’d feel all wrapped up

In their velvety arms

Because there is no star

Or planet or moon

That could ever fill up

My heart more than you

And even if all

Of my dreams could come true

I’d never fly up there

If I couldn’t bring you

So lie with me baby

On this starlit turf

And let’s let our roots

Sink into the dirt

And although our bodies

Are trapped here on Earth

My eyes will always

Be star-searching first
