(Maurice White, Eddie del Barrio & Allee Willis)
In the sky, shines a star, spaces,
Near and far, calling out, who you are
And smiling in the night.
[Chorus:]
Star light, star bright beam across the
Sky - falling, calling can you tell me why -
Star light, star bright mighty light to see.
Shining, smiling down on you and me -
Star hides from the rain, it turns
Against the pain, fooling many in the game
While smiling in the night -
I can feel the dark, take the night,
Apart, but then, the stars come out
And lift my heart -
Believing, there's a star, for everyone
Makes it easier, to recall, that together
For the children of the world - There's
A star smiling for us all
Star, shining high, cultivating my desire
Graceful in the sky
And smiling in the night
[Chorus]
