 DESTINATIONS - From There To Here and Here To There

OVERDUE VISIT


Hello, Star
Remember me?
Been awhile I know.
Yes a lot older now.
Daddy's not here any more.
I miss him too.

Why have I been away so long?
Lots of reasons I guess
Maybe because I grew up
Maybe because I just didn't take
The time to look at you
Maybe because I stopped believing
In stars
And wishes
And little girl dreams
That change
When we are big girls.

Why am I here now?
I don't know.
Maybe you can tell me
Or maybe it's because even big girls
Need stars
And wishes
And little girl dreams
And to still believe.

Yes I remember
Close my eyes.
Star Light, Star Bright
First Star I see tonight
I wish I may
I wish I might
Have the wish
I wish tonight.

Thank you
I love you too.
I promise
I won't stay away
For so long
Anymore.
