Star Watching

"Look at the stars, look at how they shine for you and everything you do"                                                            Coldplay - Yellow

I am reminded of our early romance in the Windy city                                                                                              We sat at the Planetarium and watched the city skyline

Tonight, I watched the stars making lovely music like stars do                                                                                                       Those stars make never a sound but are heard very distinctly

There were other stars performing rather differently                                                                                                    They were stars designed to parade just for you

I had no idea until they flashed their bright lights on me                                                                                                        Magically, I was certain for whom they were shinning                                                                                           

and for whom they were burning and flashing and falling                                                                                                 There were yet other stars waiting to replace the fallen heroes,

and they were quickly informed that they were born for you                                                                                Why, they lit up the sky, writing your name on every cloud in sight

That's when I could stand it no longer and went searching for you                                                                                Now, here we are, as I point out those stars made to perform for you

And you stand here with me looking all surprised like you usually do,                                                             never quite sure why you are so appreciated and loved by the stars    

We're older now, no planetarium, no windy city; just you, me, and the stars                                            I'm just a vague memory, but they shine for you and everything you do
