Guiding Star

"I would like to take things down a notch, this song is a little more personal." Lucy took a seat at the piano, and with shaking fingers stroked the ivory keys playing a painfully sweet melody. ::For BEWARE OF FALLING WARDROBES:: OPINIONS PLEASE, if you would be so kind, I want it to be perfect before, but we have a couple chapters till I use it.

1. Star song

On that last night you called me to your side

On that last night we watched the pale moon rise

With graceful hands you pointed to the sky

Never giving me a chance to ask the reason why

If I only knew that was the last time I would see you

I would have stayed and ask you to tell me everything you knew

My best friend, my first light

Now you shine down on my dreams like the light of those distant stars

Showing me the way even though you're so far away

I know that you watch over me even still

You are the light that guides me through

On warm nights like that I lay out on the grass

I watch the shadows of the clouds pass

I never forget the last lessons you taught me, even now

Show no fear; move forward through your tears

I hope that I'm right, and you can see me now

My best friend, my first light

I know you are the one of those distant stars

Shining down to show me the way

I believe that you still watch me grow

And it is your light alone that guides me though

I was too young to understand it then

I was far too tired to truly see

But I know that you told me that you'd always watch over me

Because that's what mothers do

So I look up into the night sky,

And find the place you showed me so very long ago

I offer you a smile and tell you my dreams as I lay in the soft grass

A warm wind sweeps though my hair

I know you're there

Watching over me even still

"I love you too." I whisper with a smile

Because I know you always knew

that you'd be there to guide me through
