lyrics

O distant star
It’s you and me tonight
I’m alone but I’m alright
Bright in the sky
So clear and high
Will this be my special night?
What do you see, looking down on me?
Will I end this night alone?
Or will there be, a new love for me
That special love I’ve never known?

Hope and dreams they have carried me
Through all the years long and far
Now I need him close to me
Dreams have cold hearts distant star

I don’t hang out like I used to
Been lying as low as I can
But I saw a ghost in the mirror
So I took my life in my hands

O distant star, it’s you and me tonight
I’m all alone but I’m alright
But if you see that he’s near to me
Show him the way distant star
Show him I care distant star
So that he’ll stay distant star
Distant star
