Early star,
The night is falling on the twilight shore,
And here am I alone.
Early star,
I've never wished upon a star before,
But bring the love I've known.
Tell her I want her so much
That I cling to the slightest signs---
Pebbles in water
And afternoon shadows
And cloud designs.
And early stars.
Early star,
If you're as powerful as lovers say,
Then bring her here to stay.
