Galaxy of Feelings
She looks through flickering candlelight, at his shining eyes
There's a galaxy of feelings, a million stars in the skies
She wants to ask him, will you take me where you are?
So she can wish upon every sparkling star...
She holds back a tear, so it won't splash on his happiness
She wants what is best for him, more than stardust, nothing less
She retreats to the shadows, in the corners of her mind
She believes it is her, who he will never find...
She wonders what could have been, if he had traveled far?
She wishes for him the light of every single star
She is actually home alone, sitting in her own sorrow
She believes it is her, who he may never know...
Then she hears a knock at the front door
She opens it to find him, standing on her floor
Tears of joy burst through silence, as he holds her tight
She learns he's known her all along, on this special night
As the candlelight flickers, a galaxy of feelings, they sit still
She has loved him for all these years into forever, always will
