Star In My Heart
You have to do the best you can
Good friend of mine
Some day our paths may cross again
In a better time
I know
You know, you know you know that
I pulled the thorn out of your side
When I walked away
I took the rock out of your shoe
On that very day
I pray
You'll forgive me for not leaving sooner

You are the star in my heart
Guess you've always known
Though we are many worlds apart
I am still your friend
And friends
Will always be friends forever

Don't waste your precious thoughts on me
And my tired dreams
Your soul is bursting at the seams
You are finally free
To be
Even more than you could ever dream of
You'll learn to hold your head up high
You'll make your stand
You'll look the world straight in the eye
You will never blink
To think
I almost held on too long to help you

You are the star in my heart
Guess you've always known
Though we are many worlds apart
I am still your friend
And friends
Will always be friends forever
