Star Shine

I wonder do you remember
A time when we used to sing
A time when we would laugh and smile
Much more than we do today


I wonder do you remember
How grass feels between your toes
And cold dew-drops at sunrise
When we'd stay up to greet the day

Won't you come out with me tonight
We'll fly to the stars so bright
Right up to where the stars shine
So spread your wings and fly

I tell you I'd do anything
To see your smile again
Come with me, run through the grass
And kick those old shoes away

I tell you I'd do anything
To hear you laugh again
I used to tell the lamest jokes
But you laughed at them anyway

Won't you come out with me tonight
We'll fly to the stars so bright
Right up to where the stars shine
So spread your wings and fly

I do not need a telescope
To see the stars shining in your eyes
When it's do or dive, sink or swim
Then it's worth more than I can say

I do not need a telescope
To see you cause you're by my side
Miles apart but close to my heart
Stay forever with me, I pray

You only see stars at night
Cause it's in the dark that you see the light
So take a look up tonight
The stars shine

Won't you come out with me tonight
We'll fly to the stars so bright
Right up to where the stars shine
So spread your wings and fly

You only see stars at night
Cause it's in the dark that you see the light
So take a look up tonight
The stars shine

side note - one of the few songs I've written where the words didn't come first...
