Each night, I lie in my bed gazing at my star
it is always in the sky sparkling down on me
I like to think this star is my mother's spirit
watching over me as I try to make it in this world
Oh, the day she left me, I wept, don't you leave,
please don't go, I don't want to be alone
mom, come back to me, come back to me
I have never known unconditional love like that
But, God had a plan and took my mom to heaven
but he gave me a sparkling star in the night sky
and when it glitters and shines I am not alone
my mom's spirit is with me, telling me to be strong
telling me to go on . . .
