watch the stars

Watch the stars
As they shine so bright.
Listen to the crickets,
As they sing at night.

Watch the moonbeams
As they light our way.
Listen to the trees
As they begin to sway.

Watch the fireflies
As they swing to and fro.
Listen to our love
As it continues to grow.

Watch out your window
For my star to appear
Listen for my heart beat
As it draws ever near.

Watch as time
Slips quietly bye.
Listen to your soul
As it tries not to cry.
