about

"Little Star" was written the summer of 2013 after a dear friend of mine came into my life. I sat looking out at the first star of the evening one hot night & wrote it all in one sitting.

lyrics

Little Star,
you are the first one out tonight.
Little Star,
surrounded by the fading sky
Little Star,
I know that you're so far away,
but could you spare the time of day
for the wish I have to make?

Little Star,
Could you bring him back to me?
Little Star,
It's like he sailed across the sea
Little Star,
I know that it's a lot to ask,
but just make a poor girl happy
and I swear I'll it last

Little Star
You are my only hope tonight
Little Star
Can you help me make it right
Little Star
You only seem so small because you're miles away
I hope he doesn't make the same mistake
I hope he doesn't make the same mistake

Little Star
You are my only hope tonight
Little Star
Can you help me make it right
Little Star
You only seem so small because you're miles away
I hope he doesn't make the same mistake
I hope he doesn't make the same mistake
