Counting Stars

Looking at the night time sky Staring at the stars counting all that we can see Serenaded by the cars clouded sky and rainy nights full moon and sometimes none I cherish counting stars with you You are my only one Making wishes on the shooting ones Knowing what we see is gone In the twinkle of an instant Their light may now be done In the darkness of a moon filled night Lying, counting stars with you It doesn't matter how high we get we may even just see two I know we can not count them all If we stay here 'till we die The thing that is important Is that we just give it a try Each night we begin again The stars come out to play Counting stars each night with you My first wish comes true each day Imagine, if there's someone there Counting stars, and we are one That they look at and imagine On the far side of the sun thinking, what is going on Way out there in space counting stars, like I with you brings a smile to my face Lying here just holding hands And counting stars we see Just knowing that this point in time belongs to you and me counting some we do not see A speck in outer space Lying, counting stars with you this is my favorite place I know we can not count them all If we stay here 'till we die The thing that is important Is that we just give it a try Each night we begin again The stars come out to play Counting stars each night with you My first wish comes true each day

Hello Roger Turner, I wonder just how many stars are in the sky. I think that it is impossible to count all the stars. Well done. have a nice evening my friend.
