Gazing at a Star


Walking alone
On a road so far
Stopping shortly
To gaze at a star
Reminded of one
Who tamed my heart.
She thought of me
As if I were that star
Then she left me longing
Now I�ve come this far
I�ve learned a lot on this lonely road
I�ve learned to cherish
What I call my own
I�ve learned not to rush
Into things untold
And I�ve learned the sweet sorrow
Of being all alone
I regret many things
That I�ve done in my past
But I�ve also come to know
It�s not the least, and it won�t be the last
We went through many joys,
Many trails, many pains
But in the end
They all seemed like selfish little games
I�d played them once
And again all the same
But one things for sure
I�ll never forget that name
So sweet, so pure
Was her name on my lips.
But I never looked in her eyes
Or gave her the first kiss
We whispered sweet �I love U�s�
And blew kisses in the air
Do I finally get to meet her
Now that it�s all over? NO, I don�t dare!!
We had plans for the future
Our whole lives we would share
But then she changed her mind
And now neither of us care
But now here I stand
At the beginning or at the end
Just wanting her once again as a friend
And gazing at the star
That never really began.
