if we could look down from above
would we see constellations off
you and me revolving ’round
our own lives  

are we like stars , set in our way 
only to fall and burn one day 
do we shine, not knowing 
our own light 

what is forever 
when every sky shows 
as soon as one light ’s out 
another one glows 
all of us wonder where do we go 
is it dark, is it light, nobody really knows 

when we wish upon a star 
for our souls to meet again not far 
does it come true or is it just 
a nursery rhyme 
and when my time on earth is done 
is a shooting star what I become 
was an impression made, or do I just fade 
from your mind 
 
what is forever 
when every sky shows 
as soon as one light ’s out 
another one glows 
all of us wonder where do we go 
is it dark, is it light, nobody really knows
