Your Tears and Stars (A Wish Song)

I wanted to save every tear you shed,

Turn them into pearls for you instead,

But my dear love, it was not to be,

The tears you cried were lost at sea.

I yearned for stars to light our night,

To hold them close, to make things right,

But stars are far and out of reach,

Just like the love we cannot breach.

In dreams, I chase both pearls and stars,

Yet wake to find they're still afar,

My dear love, I wish I could,

Preserve your tears, if only I would.
