Always just out of reach…the stars!
Alone, no matter how lofty the peaks I scaled
Eyes stinging from the dripping
Burning sweat of my brow…
Blurring my vision until I couldn’t see
Beyond myself…
Always just out of reach…the stars!
No matter which road I took
It seemed the one I chose
Was riddled with hidden craters
And I’m was lost in a forlorn mist so dense
There was only me, and
Always just out of reach…the stars!
But one day I came to a crossroads
And with another soul I collided.
He walked with me, hand in hand
Until we reached a towering peak
Then he lifted me…
And I touched the stars!
