My Star That Fell Out Of Heaven
Searching skies all of my life
And hopelessly in vain
I ached to find that shining star
To make me shine again.
I looked above, I looked below
I looked with all my soul
And never did I find the one
That proved to be my goal.
Until I saw your shining eyes
Your warm glow like the sun
I looked into those dark brown eyes
And knew you were the one.
My heart just fell down at your feet
Like a knight before a queen
And drowned in your magnificence
Like none I'd ever seen.
I could not grasp reality
For I'd thrown my dreams away
But every dream I'd ever had
Became reality that day.
I felt a foolish school boy
There in your presence dear
Stumbling over my own two feet
Whenever you came near.
I tried to think of words to say
To make you feel my joy
To show you I was strong and true
And not just a lovesick boy.
And then you let me touch your hand
Look deep into your eyes
And I saw all that I'd dreamed of
Much to my surprise.
Looking back into my eyes
With yearning of your own
You put my hand upon your heart
And my heart found it's home.
I don't know what I ever did
To deserve someone like you
But if you give this man the chance
I'll prove myself to you.
I'll make you happy the rest of my life
Each cycle of twenty-four/seven
I don't need to search the dark skies anymore
I've got my own star that fell out of Heaven.
