Longing For the Stars

My mind is always a million miles away
I long for a better time...I long for a better day
There’s nothing in this life that turns me on
If it weren’t for Mondo, I’d pass and be gone
I have no desire to be here at this time
I feel that God putting me here is a crime 
I feel like a chess piece on his old worn out board 
Why would he do this to me?...my father...my Lord 
What does he get out of seeing me suffer? 
Instead of life getting better, it just keeps getting tougher
Life really stinks, I hate being here 
There’s only one thing here that I hold dear 
Amondo Michael Cole you are the one
You are my moon, you are my sun 
You are the light that makes my darkness disappear 
I just wish that you were near
It is so hard to be away from you
I’m always sad...I’m always blue
The days just keep rolling on
I often wonder when I’ll be gone 
I will leave this place and travel back to Saturn
I will be out in the stars as I watch this place burn 
All of the low life people will melt away 
Leaving you and I to make our way 
Back out into the stars where we belong 
Putting us here was totally wrong
We never belonged here...we’re too good for this place 
If God were here...I’d tell him to his face 
I’d tell him I am angry, but I’m glad I was led to you
Only a loving god would do that for me and that’s true 
So when the hard times get to be too much
I clear my head and think of your touch
God knew he could not get through to me so he sent you
You are real, you are honest, you are good, you are true
You swept me off of my feet with your first letter 
Things just keep getting better and better 
I know you love me more each day
I can feel you and I have to say 
Thank you so much for coming into my life 
I cannot wait to be your wife 
You have made my life complete 
No other can could ever compete 
There’s only you and I forever 
We’ll travel the stars...we’ll leave here together
Never to return...for the stars are our home 
Forever with you...never will I roam 
You are the brightest star that shines in my world 
We are twilight in the netherworld 
We are beautiful as long as we’re together 
For us to shine we need forever 
We can never let the other burn out
There can be no questions and no doubts 
You have to know I love you as much as I do
You have to know my love is true
I also need the same from you
I need the love you had when we flew 
Away to Saturn the first time around 
You picked me up off the ground 
You wrapped me in your big black wings 
You took me on to better things 
Then we got separated and came here 
I was gripped with sadness...I was gripped with fear 
I had no light left inside of me
You shined your light and made me free 
Then the demons came rushing in 
Everything I said and did was full of sin
I was like a demon overnight 
You knew something was wrong...things just weren’t right 
You came to me in a dream 
Your light was on me like a strong beam 
It soaked through me and set me ablaze 
I have never been so filled with light...never been so amazed 
Your love has got me in a daze 
My soul you lifted...my soul you raised 
You brought me out of the darkness where I was residing 
I was tired of dying...I was tired of hiding 
Then I woke up to the madness I created 
I would have been fine had I waited 
To talk to you again to make me see 
This darkness I am in is no way to be
You need to force me into the light with you
I want to be done with these demons...I want to be through 
I don’t know what else to do
I need you to pull me through with your love that’s true 
They say true love conquers all 
Don’t let me slip...don’t let me fall 
The abyss is constantly calling my name
I am living with regrets...I am living in shame 
Then you came along and, my soul, you tried to claim 
You perfected your shot and your arrow you aimed 
At my heart and pulled me back to you again 
One day we’ll get over...one day we’ll win 
These demons are not going to take me from you
I don’t care what I have to do
I have searched my whole life for a love that’s true 
And that love, my love, comes from you
Yes, my love, you will take me back to the stars 
You’ll take away all of my pain and heal all my scars 
For to the stars we must return
There’s nothing left here for me to learn 
I found you, my love...my shining star 
And for you, with God, I’d go to war 
There’s no limit to my love...I want more 
You are the one that I adore 
You came to me when I was damaged goods 
I talked to you and you understood 
No one has ever gotten me before 
They always run and shut the door 
You opened your door and your heart wide open to me
It is only with you that I can be free 
We have a short while left on this earth, my dear 
After that everything will be made quite clear 
We’ll understand what all this meant 
We’ll understand how we were heaven sent 
We fell together and lost each other 
No one else can give us what we need...we’d never recover 
We need each other’s love to continue to grow 
It is not for other beings to understand or know 
We are different you and I
My reason for being here...I now know why
I was to find you before I die
When the time comes for me to fly 
You will see me passing by
Telling you how much I love you and I’ll wait for you 
You will fly over and meet me...this is true 
If only other people knew 
What it’s like for me and you
No one has a love like ours
We belong together in the stars 
Here we go, baby, take my hand 
We’re out in space on demand 
We fly away to Saturn so fantastic 
She’s so beautiful and so majestic 
To the stars, baby, light the way 
Never to return to earth another day 
We are on to bigger and better things 
No one could picture this in their dreams 
The site is so magical and amazing 
No more hoping...no more gazing 
Out in the stars we’ll forever be together as one 
With a love much brighter than the sun 
We’ll shine our light on each other as we pass Mars 
Here we go...back to the stars
