Moonchild.
I saw the stars fall from the sky tonight, such a scary sight
 
 The moon never looked so big, so powerful, all alone up there
 
 But on the breeze I heard the sobs, and the prayer
 
 'God please bring back my friends, this isn't fair'
 
  
 
 We all hold a fallen star in our pocket,in our wallet, in our hearts
 
 Each one pulling us towards that dark sky, where we belong
 
 Let me tell ya somethin' about those gone before us, it's where it starts
 
 And through each day they guide us, keeping us strong
 
  
 
 Lonely is such a common feeling, we don't see that we're all connected
 
 Dot to dot, star to star, we're all on the same path to where we are
 
 And the magic in our hands, in our heart, shows us we're alright now
 
 We just have to find the faith in something we can't see, that's destiny
 
  
 
 The moon looks awfully sad, sitting there all by itself, but it knows
 
 That somewhere in this world, lies its friends, leading others to its side
 
 So it lights the night, as a beacon to all the fireflies that wander home
 
 Starlight, star bright, the moon knows without its sight, wishes - they come true
 
  
 
 I felt alone tonight, trying to decide, where those who cared about me were
 
 Tear-stained cheeks were short-lived, when I saw the moon above that ridge
 
 And it said to me, yeah it said to me, they are here even when they're not
 
 I see the moon, the moon sees me, and the moon sees somebody I want to see
 
  
 
 Greed, is something unknown in the cosmic reality that we see each evening
 
 Stars, falling to earth so that they may help those they've loved, a sacrifice of the moon
 
 And we all learn, somewhere along the way, that things find a way to be okay
 
 Yeah the moon, teaches us more than we can see, every dark night
 
  
 
 And I hold strong in the latest hours, knowing that I have the power of the stars
 
 The blessing of the moon, and the hope of the darkest night on my side
 
 I'll wait patiently for the day when I get to be on my way, up there
 
 Lighting the lives of the world, guiding the ones I've known, and loving the moon - like my own.
