Once upon a midnight dreary I began to weep
Try and try as I might I could not fall asleep
I sat upon the window sill and you came shining through
I never thought I'd find a guiding light to fall for you

But you are a star ---------
Shinning up and over me giving me the light I need
Leading me onward
Yes you are the star ---------
Shinning in my morning sky,
Showing me a way that I won't have to stumble... Stumble like a child

cs a child I feared the darkness
cs a man I came to know
Where I never ever noticed just how low a man can go
I closed my eyes, I took for granted
Every seed of good you planted
But now I stand before you and I have the need to see

cnd you are a star ---------
Shinning up and over me giving me the light I need
Leading me onward
Yes you are the star ---------
Shinning in my morning sky, showing me a way that I won't have to stumble
Stumble like a child

I searched the largest continents
I sailed across the sea
Dug diamonds in South cfrica and cut mahogany
But the strongest stones and tallest trees
Could not fill the hole in me
You filled up with your starlight and you healed me

cnd you are a star ---------
Shinning up and over me giving me the light I need
Leading me onward
Yes you are the star ---------
Shinning in my morning sky, showing me a way that I won't have to stumble
Stumble like a child
