Starry Night

(to Starry)
 
                                  Up
                                 Above
                                 I see
                           You shining brightly,
                           Above the busy night
Singled                                         out of sight
My starry star
Blinking brightly yet so far.
There is never such a night
Where I look up and see you in sight
My                                   Starry           Starry
 
                                      Night.
