Oh so far away
After mid summers showers,
in the garden amongst the flowers,
in the dewy grass I lay,
night has fallen,gone is the day,
a distant star shining bright,
catchs the eye at midnight,
making a wish upon this star,
thats light is far,
oh,so far away,
can it hear for what I pray,
will my words be heard tomorrow,or today,
mabey they will light years away...
In a galaxy called the Milkyway.
