The Only Star For Me
Walking through this journey of life,
When I face troubles and strife,
When night's as dark as it can be,
You are the only star for me;
No one to understand my tears,
Or deliver me from my fears,
When my heart weeps, "I feel lonely",
You are the only star for me;
Moonless, the sky is without light,
There's none to guide me in the night,
When all around, darkness I see,
You are the only star for me;
When I don't want to go ahead,
Through life's dull paths, alone I tread,
When I see you, I'm filled with glee,
You are the only star for me.
