The Moon and Her Midnight Star
If I could be your brightest moon
and you my midnight star,
I’d travel through the universe
to meet you where you are.
All the other stars I’d leave
and follow you forever,
for never will I shine as bright
as when we shine together.
That glinting twinkle in your eyes
would set my face aglow,
sharing secrets of the galaxy
you’ll burn for me to know.
When it’s time for us to find
a hiding place to sleep,
near or far I’m where you are,
in space we choose to keep.
Be mine you see, your brightest moon
and you my midnight star…
I’ve traveled the whole universe
to be here where you are.
