No first star tonight

By midnights voice

No first star tonight

.
.
You were my twinkling star

When I was but a child

Now the signs of time

Have made you who you are


You were once the child in me

The center of the truth

Now time has taken away the sight

That view you used to be



Now I gaze up above

Hoping I might see

But all that I can perceive

Is the life missing at the stub


Not even the star light

Can save me from my sins

I long to wish upon a star

But there are none out there tonight
