Farthest Star

I’m only wishing on the farthest star 
I’m only asking for a little bit 
I’m only blowing on a tiny spark 
To warm the heart 
And light a torch 
To make the darkness bearable

I’m only clinging to the faintest hope 
I’m barely hanging from a fraying rope 
I’m only singing with the radio 
To make it home 
And stay afloat 
The road is long and terrible

I’m only whistling with the birds again 
I’m only whispering to the firmament 
Quietly 

Star light, star bright 
Flickering trick of night 
Outshined by city lights 
Farthest star I see tonight… 

(trick of night you lose it in the city lights 
Just another) 

I’m only wishing on the farthest star 
I’m only asking for a little bit 
I’m only blowing on a tiny spark 
To warm the heart 
And light a torch 
To make the darkness bearable
