Stars

The endless night is beautiful
Makes me feel like I was still a child
So much has changed but this remains
Fear and wonder hard to reconcile
And I thought there’d come a time when I would go
Bravely out into a world that I would know
Now I know
There’s too many stars in the sky
Too many questions why
Too much to change, and not enough to be changed by
Too many stars
When your tired mind can’t be sure
What’s standing right before your eyes
From a distance there’s a scene
An open heart might recognize
Years of trying to understand have blinded me
More you really know the less you need to see
To be free
There’s too many stars in the sky
Too many questions why
Too much to change, and not enough to be changed by
Too many stars
Too many stars
