but everyone needs a star to follow
when darkness threatens to engulf them.
Everyone needs a star to guide them
when they have lost their way.
Let me be that star for you
and guide you from any coming storm.
I’ll take you to a tranquil place
away from any harm.
Let me be your love’s champion
here within my open arms.
Let me be, let me be
your one and only one.

with it comes a soft breezethat whispers to the treesas lovers walk hand in handthrough twilights wonderlandthe birds in the trees that sangnow rest their heads in sleepas in the woodland silencethere is heard not a peep.Date unknown
