Forlorn Dreamers
As she sits beneath the tree,
She wishes upon a lone star.
That she would no longer be alone
Or dream of things away & far.
As he sits looking out his window,
He looks to a star he’s seen before.
He wishes he hadn’t done that night
What he knows he’s done before.
Two lovers sit beneath a tree
Looking up at a friendly star.
The same star that’d brought them together,
And let them know what was away & far.
