[Verse 1]
As a child I asked my mother
"Is there a morning star?"
I was answered by my mother
"Yes, there's a morning star"
Just before the dawn she whispered
"A light will appear above"
And this light that greets the sunrise
This is the star of love

[Chorus]
For this is the morning star
That shines above
Yes, this is the morning star
This is the star of love

[Verse 2]
And then I asked my mother
"Will I see the morning star?"
I was answered by my mother
"You will see the morning star"
It gleamed for just one moment
One moment in the skies
Then it shined forever after
Deep in a mother's eyes
[Outro]
And that's when I learned
How wise all mother's are
For there in my mother's eyes
I saw the morning star
The lovelight in her eyes
Shining bright like a morning star
