Lyrics

A falling star crossed through the night, It slipped from heaven into my sight. It landed softly in my hand, Still warm from where the skies still stand. I whispered, “Star, where did you fly?” It shimmered low, then softly sighed. “Don’t judge me by my fragile light, I’ve traveled far through endless night.” So hear my wish before you fade, It’s simple words I’m not afraid. Let love stay close, don’t let it run, Let broken hearts be healed, not numb. If one small wish is all you take, Then let it be for kindness’ sake. No power more, no shining sign — Just grant this wish before you shine. I dream of days without a war, Of open doors, of something more. Of honest eyes and peaceful sleep, Of promises the world can keep. I spoke too long, the moment thinned, The little star grew tired within. It faded softly, said no word, But left me hope I never heard. So hear my wish before you fade, It’s simple words I’m not afraid. Let love stay close, don’t let it run, Let broken hearts be healed, not numb. If one small wish is all you take, Then let it be for kindness’ sake. No power more, no shining sign — Just grant this wish before you shine.
