Stars

 

He finds peace in falling stars

A reminder of home

When around war explodes

He dreams of her and all he has left behind

As he crosses onto battle lines

pulling the trigger and pushing threw

One more night

A few more stars

All this will be over soon

And  in her arms is where he hopes to be

Laying in his world so free

He knows that freedom has its costs

But when he finds her,

He will realize not all is lost

Though men will die and war will rage

Love's true fate will find a way

So as the rockets soar

and bombs and bullets rage some more

He looks at the sky and sees

Stars falling

His only peace

He closes his eyes and makes a wish

That someday she will be his

And as he prays and hopes and waits

She wishes on those same stars

For her true loves fate

So deliver  him

From the gore of war

Bring him home and to her arms

Lets the stars not fall in vain

Bring true the wish

They both have made
