If stars were not made of bright, gaseous flame, what might they be? Illuminate me.

Starlight, Starbright

Starlight, Starbright

First star I see tonight

Wish I may, wish I might

Live to see the Morning Light

Starlight, Starbright

A gift from God, natural nightlight

A vow you won't be in the dark all alone

His grace and mercy will lead you home

Starlight, Starbright

A kiss from Satan, a seductive invite

She should be sleeping, but temptation calls

Cover of darkness, to temptation he falls

Starlight, Starbright

Bastard children, the Sunshine's blight

Promiscuous Sunshine, spreads his seed

To his responsibilities, he pays no heed

Starlight, Starbright

Accompany the Moon, join her every night

She nurtures the stars, she is their mother

Chasing the Sun, their Father, her Lover

Starlight, Starbright

A whimsical folly, accidental delight

Natural phenomenon, such lovely beings

A fluke of nature is all we are seeing

Starlight, Starbright

Wish I may, wish I might

Unknown composition, yet still I believe

I wish on your glow, my wish you receive
