Star Bright...

You sit in the back seat of the car
Cheek, nose, lips pressed against the glass
Your eyes gazing into the night's sky
I see your lips moving
I turn the radio down...

"I wish I may, I wish I might..."
Soft whispers into fog on the window
Your dreams, glowing brighter then any star

My eyes turned towards the road ahead
My hand on the steering wheel
Get you home safe,
Tucked into your warm pink and purple bed

In my heart and in my head, my wish for her is said,  

"Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight
I wish I may, I wish I might
Have this wish I wish tonight
Protect this child, this angel of mine
This precious gift that I don't deserve
Let her grow in wisdom and stature
Let her love and be loved
Give her strength when life gets hard
Heal her heart when it is broken
Let her touch people and change their lives
Save her smile, her gentle spirit and her enormous heart
Bless her and keep her
Most of all, thank you for putting her in my life"
